The Dell OS10 Router must be configured to advertise a hop limit of at least 32 in Router Advertisement messages for IPv6 stateless auto-configuration deployments.

Description
The Neighbor Discovery protocol allows a hop limit value to be advertised by routers in a Router Advertisement message being used by hosts instead of the standardized default value. If a very small value was configured and advertised to hosts on the LAN segment, communications would fail due to the hop limit reaching zero before the packets sent by a host reached its destination.

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.

Check Text (C-269902r1052091_chk)

This requirement is not applicable for the DODIN Backbone. Review the router configuration to determine if the hop limit has been configured for Router Advertisement messages. Verify the ipv6 nd hop-limit settings are not configured less than 32. ! interface ethernet1/1/4 ... ipv6 nd hop-limit 32 If it has been configured and has not been set to at least 32, it is a finding.

Fix Text (F-73836r1052090_fix)

Configure each IPv6 interface to advertise a hop limit of at least 32 in Router Advertisement messages as in the example below. OS10(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/4 OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/4)# ipv6 nd send-ra OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/4)# ipv6 nd hop-limit 32
