Authorization for access to any network device requires an approved and assigned individual account identifier. To ensure only the assigned individual is using the account, the account must be bound to a user certificate when PKI-based authentication is implemented.
Determine if the HP FlexFabric Switch maps the authenticated identity to the user account for PKI-based authentication. [HP] display ssh user-information Total ssh users: 3 Username Authentication-type User-public-key-name Service-type pkiuser password-publickey hp all If the HP FlexFabric Switch does not map the authenticated identity to the user account for PKI-based authentication, this is a finding.
Configure the HP FlexFabric Switch to map the authenticated identity to the user account for PKI-based authentication.
