Vulnerability discussion

By immediately displaying an alarm message, potential security violations can be identified more quickly even when administrators are not logged into the network device. An example of a mechanism to facilitate this would be through the utilization of SNMP traps.

Check content

Verify that RiOS uses automated mechanisms to alert security personnel to threats identified by authoritative sources. Navigate to the device Management Console Navigate to Configure >> System Settings >> SNMP Basic Verify that Host Servers are defined in the section "Trap Receivers" If there are no Host Servers defined in "Trap Receivers", this is a finding.

Fix text

Configure RiOS to use automated mechanisms to alert security personnel to threats identified by authoritative sources. Navigate to the device Management Console Navigate to Configure >> System Settings >> SNMP Basic Click "Add a New Trap Receiver" Set "Receiver IP Address" to the address of the trap receiver Set "Destination Port:" to the port that the Trap Receiver is listening on Set "Receiver Type:" to "v3" Set "Remote User:" to the user name on the Trap Receiver Set "Authentication:" to Set "Authentication Protocol:" to "SHA" SHA Key: Set "Security Level:" to "Auth/Priv" Set "Privacy Protocol:" to "AES" Set "Privacy:" to Select "same as Authentication Key" Set "Enable Receiver" Click "Add" Navigate to the top of the web page and click "Save" to save these settings permanently

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
