The host running a BIND 9.x implementation must use a dedicated management interface to separate management traffic from DNS-specific traffic.

Description
Providing out-of-band (OOB) management is the best first step in any management strategy. No production traffic resides on an OOB network. The biggest advantage to implementation of an OOB network is providing support and maintenance to the network that has become degraded or compromised. During an outage or degradation period, the in-band management link may not be available.

Who does this work

10 NICE work roles and 9 EC-Council certifications.

This is an inference across published mappings, not a single claim by anyone. This check maps to a control, which maps to a Cybersecurity Framework outcome, which NIST assigns to the work roles below. EC-Council separately maps its certifications to those same roles.

A certification prepares someone for a role. It is not evidence that a holder is qualified, and neither NIST nor EC-Council has stated that any certification here addresses this check.

Work-role assignments published by NIST (NICE Framework Components 2.2.0 and the CSF 2.0 OLIR crosswalk). Certification mappings published by EC-Council.

Verify that the BIND 9.x server is configured to use a dedicated management interface: # ifconfig -a eth0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 10.0.1.252 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.0.1.255 inet6 fd80::21c:d8ff:fab7:1dba prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link> ether 00:1a:b8:d7:1a:bf txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 2295379 bytes 220126493 (209.9 MiB) RX errors 0 dropped 31 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 70507 bytes 12284940 (11.7 MiB) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 eth1: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1458 inet 10.0.0.5 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.0.0.255 inet6 fe81::21c:a8bf:fad7:1dca prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link> ether 00:1d:d8:b5:1c:dd txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 39090 bytes 4196802 (4.0 MiB) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 93250 bytes 18614094 (17.7 MiB) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 If one of the interfaces listed is not dedicated to only process management traffic, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-76361r1123524_fix)

On the host machine, configure an interface that is dedicated to management traffic. Restart the host machine.
