Title

The Cisco ASA must be configured to display the Standard Mandatory DoD Notice and Consent Banner before granting access to the device. (Cat II impact)

Discussion

Display of the DoD-approved use notification before granting access to the network device ensures privacy and security notification verbiage used is consistent with applicable federal laws, Executive Orders, directives, policies, regulations, standards, and guidance. System use notifications are required only for access via logon interfaces with human users.
