The Juniper SRX Services Gateway must specify the order in which authentication servers are used.
Description
Discussion Text
Specifying an authentication order implements an authentication, authorization, and accounting methods list to be used, thus allowing the implementation of redundant or backup AAA servers. These commands also ensure that a default method or order will not be used by the device (e.g., local passwords).
The Juniper SRX must specify the order in which authentication is attempted by including the authentication-order statement in the authentication server configuration.
Remote logon using password results in a CAT 1 finding (CCI-000765) for failure to use two-factor authentication. Thus, if the account of last resort uses only password authentication, this configuration prevents remote access. DoD policy is that redundant AAA servers are required to mitigate the risk of a failure of the primary AAA device.
