If IP remote monitoring is activated, configure the VTU to require a password before permitting access to the remote monitoring and associated control functions.

Check Contents

[IP]; Interview the IAO to validate compliance with the following requirement:

In the event the VTU is connected to an IP network ensure access to IP remote monitoring and associated control functions of the VTU is minimally protected by a password.

Note: During APL testing, this is a finding in the event this requirement is not supported by the VTU. i.e., remote monitoring must be able to have a password set in order to access remote monitoring features.

Verify that an administrator password is required to access remotely accessible VTU. Have the IAO or SA demonstrate compliance with the requirement.
