Part of Sun Ray Desktop Units not assigned IP address

Associated with IA controls: ECSC-1

SV-17347r1_rule Sun Ray Desktop Units are not assigned with DHCP reserved IP addresses.

Vulnerability discussion

Sun Ray servers will not distribute DHCP addresses to non-Sun Ray Desktop Units. Configuring Sun Ray Desktop Units with reserved IP addresses will ensure no rogue desktop units are attached to the network and able to connect to the Sun Ray network. This will prevent unauthorized devices from receiving DHCP addresses from Sun Ray servers or external DHCP servers, and prevent access to the Sun Ray network.

Check content

Open the Solaris DHCP Manager or the DCHP server that is handing out IP addresses. The Solaris DHCP manager is located in /usr/sadm/admin/bin/dhcpmgr. Verify that the dynamic IP addresses are set to permanent or static based on the MAC.

Fix text

Configure Sun Ray session servers to reserve IP addresses for Desktop Units.
