ARBA-VN-000470 - The Remote Access VPN Gateway must be configured to prohibit Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) and Layer 2 Forwarding (L2F).

Information

PPTP and L2F are obsolete methods for implementing virtual private networks. Both protocols may be easy to use and readily available, but they have many well-known security issues and exploits. Encryption and authentication are both weak.

Solution

Configure AOS with the following commands:
configure terminal
cd /mm
ip access-list session vpnlogon
any any svc-pptp deny
exit
write memory
cd /mynode
firewall cp
ipv4 deny any proto 6 ports 1723 1723
ipv6 deny any proto 6 ports 1723 1723
exit
write memory
