Check: AADC-NM-000001
A10 Networks ADC NDM STIG:
AADC-NM-000001
(in version v1 r1)
Title
The A10 Networks ADC must limit the number of concurrent sessions to one (1) for each administrator account and/or administrator account type. (Cat II impact)
Discussion
Device management includes the ability to control the number of administrators and management sessions that manage a device. Limiting the number of allowed administrators and sessions per administrator is helpful in limiting risks related to DoS attacks. This requirement addresses concurrent sessions for administrative accounts and does not address concurrent sessions by a single administrator via multiple administrative accounts. The maximum number of concurrent sessions should be defined based upon mission needs and the operational environment for each system.
