Description
Remote access services enable users outside of the enclave to have access to data and services within the private network. In many instances these connections traverse the Internet. Remote access sessions must use encryption to protect the confidentiality of information traveling through a public network such as the Internet. Requiring remote access sessions to the enclave to traverse an encrypted tunnel, authorized on a per client basis, makes the session difficult to snoop or spoof. This requirement is applicable to network device management and is not applicable to the routing function.
