Vulnerability discussion

Configuring the C2 Voice Video Endpoint to implement MLPP ensures vital high-level communication occurs regardless of environmental, geographical, and political conditions. When conditions require immediate discussion among high-level officials, the C2 communications systems must be capable of implementing MLPP.The MLPP service allows properly validated users to place priority calls and when necessary, C2 users can preempt lower-priority phone calls. Precedence designates the priority level that is associated with a call and preemption designates the process of terminating lower-precedence calls currently using a Voice Video Endpoint. A call of higher precedence can be extended to or through the device. A validated C2 user can preempt calls to targeted stations when AS-SIP is fully implemented on the network or through fully subscribed time division multiplexing (TDM) trunks. This capability assures high-level personnel of communication to critical organizations and personnel during network stress situations, such as a national emergency or degraded network situations.

Check content

If the Voice Video Endpoint does not support C2 communications, this check procedure is Not Applicable. Verify the Voice Video Endpoint supporting C2 communications implements MLPP call disconnect to enable Routine, Priority, Immediate, Flash, and Flash Override. If the Voice Video Endpoint supporting C2 communications does not implement MLPP call disconnect to enable Routine, Priority, Immediate, Flash, and Flash Override, this is a finding. If the MLPP call disconnect is not configured for use, this is a finding.

Fix text

Configure the Voice Video Endpoint supporting C2 communications to implement MLPP call disconnect to enable Routine, Priority, Immediate, Flash, and Flash Override.

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.
