The HP FlexFabric Switch must obtain its public key certificates from an appropriate certificate policy through an approved service provider.

Rule version HFFS-ND-000139 · STIG v1 · 2026-09-02

Discussion

For user certificates, each organization obtains certificates from an approved, shared service provider, as required by OMB policy. For federal agencies operating a legacy public key infrastructure cross-certified with the Federal Bridge Certification Authority at medium assurance or higher, this Certification Authority will suffice.

Check

Determine if the HP FlexFabric Switch obtains public key certificates from an appropriate certificate policy through an approved service provider.

If the HP FlexFabric Switch does not obtain its public key certificates from an appropriate certificate policy through an approved service provider, this is a finding.

Fix

Configure the HP FlexFabric Switch to obtain its public key certificates in offline mode from an appropriate certificate policy through an approved service provider.

Configure PKI entity: [HP] pki entity HP [HP-pki-entity-HP] common-name HP [HP-pki-entity-HP] country US [HP-pki-entity-HP] locality Littleton [HP-pki-entity-HP] organization-unit STG [HP-pki-entity-HP] organization HP [HP-pki-entity-HP] state MA [HP-pki-entity-HP] ip 15.252.76.101 [HP-pki-entity-HP] quit

Configure PKI domain: [HP] pki domain HP [HP-pki-domain-HP] certificate request entity HP [HP-pki-domain-HP] public-key rsa general name hostkey [HP-pki-domain-HP] source ip 15.252.76.101 [HP-pki-domain-HP] undo crl check enable [HP-pki-domain-HP] quit

Submit certificate request on the switch: [HP] pki request-certificate domain HP pkcs10

Transfer and import downloaded CA and user certificates to the switch: [HP] pki import domain jitc pem ca filename rae-root-ca.cer [HP] pki import domain jitc pem local filename HP.cer

Note: Configuration required on the server side is not covered here.
