BIND-9X-001510 - The host running a BIND 9.x implementation must use a dedicated management interface to separate management traffic from DNS-specific traffic.

Information

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.

NOTE: Nessus has provided the target output to assist in reviewing the benchmark to ensure target compliance.

Solution

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

Restart the host machine.
