AOS, when configured as a WLAN bridge, must not be configured to have any feature enabled that calls home to the vendor.

Rule version ARBA-NT-001610 · STIG v1 · 2026-08-25

Discussion

Call-home services will routinely send data such as configuration and diagnostic information to the vendor for routine or emergency analysis and troubleshooting.

There is a risk that transmission of sensitive data sent to unauthorized persons could result in data loss or downtime due to an attack. (Refer to SRG-NET-000131-RTR-000083.)

Fix
