Vulnerability discussion

When the production network is managed in-band, the management network could be housed at a NOC that is located remotely at single or multiple interconnected sites. NOC interconnectivity, as well as connectivity between the NOC and the managed network, must be enabled using IPsec tunnels to provide the separation and integrity of the managed traffic.

Check content

This requirement is not applicable for the DoDIN Backbone. Verify that all traffic from the managed network to the management network and vice-versa is secured via IPsec tunnel. If the management traffic is not secured via IPsec tunnel, this is a finding.

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.
