1.4 TOE Overview
4. The Target of Evaluation (TOE) is Juniper Networks, Inc. Junos OS 22.3R1 executing on MX series
universal routing modular platforms (MX240, MX480 and MX960), and the EX9200 line of
modular Ethernet switches (EX9204, EX9208 and EX9214) with MACsec support.
5. The line cards containing the MACsec module are required for deployment in the TOE. The line
cards are
• MPC10E-10C and MPC10E-15C for the MX platforms, and
• EX9200-15C for the EX platforms.
6. MX and EX appliances are secure network devices that protect themselves largely by offering
only a minimal logical interface to the network and attached nodes. They run the Junos OS
firmware, Junos OS 22.3R1, which is a special purpose OS that provides no general purpose
computing capability. Junos OS provides both management and control functions as well as all IP
routing.
7. The appliances primarily support the definition and enforcement of information flow policies
among network nodes. Each information flow from one network node to another passes
through an instance of the TOE. Information flow is controlled based on network node addresses
and protocol. The TOE ensures that each security-relevant activity is audited and provides the
tools to manage each security function.
1.5 TOE Description
1.5.1 Overview
8. The portfolio of MX universal routing modular platforms includes a wide range of physical and
virtual platforms that share a common architecture and feature set. Each Juniper Networks MX
routing appliance is a complete routing system that supports a variety of high-speed interfaces
(only Ethernet is within scope of the evaluation) for medium/large networks and network
applications. Juniper Networks MX routers share common Junos firmware, features, and
technology for compatibility across platforms.
9. The EX9200 line of programmable, flexible and scalable modular Ethernet core switches simplify
the deployment of cloud applications, virtualized servers and rich media collaboration tools
across campus and data center environments. High port densities enable the EX9200 to
consolidate and aggregate network layers, dramatically simplifying campus and data centre
architectures while reducing total cost of ownership (TCO) and lowering power, storage space,
and cooling requirements.
10. The appliances are physically self-contained, housing the firmware and hardware necessary to
perform all routing functions. The architecture components of the appliances are:

• Switch fabric – the switch fabric boards/modules provide a highly scalable, non-blocking,
centralized switch fabric matrix through which all network data passes.
• Routing Engine (Control Board) – the Routine Engine (RE) runs the Junos firmware and
provides Layer 3 routing services and Layer 2 switching services. The RE also provides
network management for all operations necessary for the configuration and operation of the
TOE and controls the flow of information through the TOE, including support for appliance
interface control and control plane functions such as chassis component, system
management and user access to the appliance.
• Layer 2 switching services (EX9200-Series only), Layer 3 switching/routing services and
network management for all operations necessary for the configuration and operation of the
TOE and controls the flow of information through the TOE.
• The Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) – provides all operations necessary for transit packet
forwarding. This is provided by the Modular Port Concentrators on the MX-Series appliances
and Line Cards on the EX9200-Series appliances. The EX9200-Series line cards support an
extensive set of Layer 2 and Layer 3 services that can be deployed in any combination of L2-
L3 applications.
• Power – power supply bays to provide complete flexibility for provisioning and redundancy.
The power supplies connect to the midplane, which distributes the different output voltages
produced by the power supplies to the appliance components, depending on their voltage
requirements.
11. The RE and PFE perform their primary tasks independently, while constantly communicating
through a high-speed internal link. This arrangement provides streamlined forwarding and
routing control and the capability to run Internet-scale networks at high speeds.
12. The appliances support numerous routing and switching standards for flexibility and scalability.
13. The functions of the appliances can all be managed through the Junos firmware, either from a
connected terminal console or via a network connection. Network management is secured using
the SSH protocol. All management, whether from a user connecting to a terminal or from the
network, requires successful authentication. In the evaluated deployment the TOE is managed
and configured via Command Line Interface, either via a directly connected console or over the
network secured using the SSH protocol.
14. The MACsec line cards support MACsec between adjacent devices, all traffic communicated
between the devices including frames for LLDP, DHCP, ARP, STP, Ethernet Control frames, etc
(the exceptions to this protection are Destination MAC and Source MAC addresses in MACsec
and MKA frames).
15. MACsec can be deployed in point-to-point mode or shared mode with multiple stations. In the
certified configuration MACsec must be configured individually on each point-to-point Ethernet
link so that a pair of MACsec-capable devices (connected by a physical medium) protect Ethernet
frames switched or routed from one device to the other. The two MACsec-capable devices are
provided with a Connectivity Association Key (CAK) and utilize the MACsec Key Agreement
(MKA) protocol to create a secure tunnel. MKA is used by the two MACsec-capable devices to
agree upon MACsec keys. MACsec must be configured to protect all traffic between the devices,
except for the MKA or Ethernet control traffic such as EAP over LAN (EAPOL) frames. The devices
will first exchange MKA frames, which serve to determine the peer is an authorized peer and
agree upon a shared key and MACsec cipher suite used to set up a transmit (Tx) Security
Association (SA) and a receive (Rx) SA. Once the SAs are set up, MACsec-protected frames
traverse the unprotected link.

1.5.3 Logical Scope of the TOE
22. The logical boundary of the TOE includes the following security functionality:
Security Functionality Description
Security Audit Auditable events are stored in the syslog files on the appliance and can
be sent to an external log server (via Netconf over SSH). Auditable events
include start-up and shutdown of the audit functions, authentication
events, and all events listed in Table 5. Audit records include the date and
time, event category, event type, username, and the outcome of the
event (success or failure). Local syslog storage limits are configurable and
are monitored. If the storage limit is reached the oldest logs will be
overwritten.
Cryptographic
Support
The TOE provides an SSH server to support protected communications
for administrators to establish secure sessions and to connect to external
syslog servers.
The TOE requires that applications exchanging information with it are
successfully authenticated prior to any exchange (i.e. applications
connecting over SSH).
Communication over point-to-point links between Juniper appliances can
be secured using MACsec.
The TOE includes cryptographic modules that provide the underlying
cryptographic services, including key management and protection of
stored keys, algorithms, random bit generation and crypto
administration. The cryptographic modules provide confidentiality and
integrity services for authentication and for protecting communications
with connecting applications.
Identification and
Authentication
The TOE supports Role Based Access Control. All users must be
authenticated to the TOE prior to being granted access to any
management actions. The TOE supports password-based authentication
and public key based authentication. Based on the assigned role, a user is
granted a set of privileges to access the system.
Administrative users must provide unique identification and
authentication data before any administrative access to the system is
granted. Authentication data entered and stored on the TOE is protected.
Security Management The TOE provides a Security Administrator role that is responsible for:
• configuration and maintenance of cryptographic elements
related to the establishment of secure connections to and from
the evaluated product
• regular review of all audit data;
• initiation of trusted update function;
• administration of MACsec functionality;

Version 1.1 Page 10 of 54
• all administrative tasks (e.g., creating the security policy).
The devices are managed through a Command Line Interface (CLI). The
CLI is accessible through local (serial) console connection or remote
administrative (SSH) session.
Protection of the TSF The TOE protects all passwords, pre-shared keys, symmetric keys and
private keys from unauthorized disclosure. Passwords are stored using
sha256 or sha512. The TOE executes self-tests during initial start-up to
ensure correct operation and enforcement of its security functions. An
administrator can install software updates to the TOE. The TOE internally
maintains the date and time.
TOE Access Prior to establishing an administration session with the TOE, a banner is
displayed to the user. The banner messaging is customizable. The TOE
will terminate an interactive session after a period of inactivity. A user
can terminate their local CLI session and remote CLI session by entering
exit at the prompt.
Trusted Path/Trusted
Channel
The TOE supports SSH v2 for secure communication to Syslog server. The
TOE supports SSH v2 (remote CLI) for secure remote administration.
Table 3 Logical Scope of TOE
1.5.4 Non-TOE hardware/software/firmware
23. The TOE relies on the provision of the following items in the network environment:
• Syslog server supporting SSHv2 connections to send audit logs;
• SSHv2 client for remote administration;
• Serial connection client for local administration.
1.5.5 Summary of out scope items
• Use of telnet, since it violates the Trusted Path requirement set (see Section 5.7.2)
• Use of FTP, since it violates the Trusted Path requirement set (see Section 5.7.2)
• Use of SNMP, since it violates the Trusted Path requirement set (see Section 5.7.2)
• Use of SSL, including management via J-Web, JUNOScript and JUNOScope, since it violates
the Trusted Path requirement set (see Section 5.7.2)
• Use of CLI account super-user and linux root account.

3 Security Problem Definition
28. As this TOE is not distributed nor a virtual Network Device, none of the
threats/assumptions/OSPs relating to distributed or virtual Network Device TOEs are specified
for this TOE.
3.1 Threats
29. The following threats for this TOE are as defined in [NDcPP] Section 4.1, which also apply to
[MACsec]. Namely:
• T.UNAUTHORIZED_ADMINISTRATOR_ACCESS
Threat agents may attempt to gain Administrator access to the network device by nefarious
means such as masquerading as an Administrator to the device, masquerading as the device
to an Administrator, replaying an administrative session (in its entirety, or selected
portions), or performing man-in-the-middle attacks, which would provide access to the
administrative session, or sessions between Network Devices. Successfully gaining
Administrator access allows malicious actions that compromise the security functionality of
the device and the network on which it resides.
• T.WEAK_CRYPTOGRAPHY
Threat agents may exploit weak cryptographic algorithms or perform a cryptographic
exhaust against the key space. Poorly chosen encryption algorithms, modes, and key sizes
will allow attackers to compromise the algorithms, or brute force exhaust the key space and
give them unauthorized access allowing them to read, manipulate and/or control the traffic
with minimal effort.
• T.UNTRUSTED_COMMUNICATION_CHANNELS
Threat agents may attempt to target Network Devices that do not use standardized secure
tunnelling protocols to protect the critical network traffic. Attackers may take advantage of
poorly designed protocols or poor key management to successfully perform man-in-the-
middle attacks, replay attacks, etc. Successful attacks will result in loss of confidentiality and
integrity of the critical network traffic, and potentially could lead to a compromise of the
Network Device itself.
• T.WEAK_AUTHENTICATION_ENDPOINTS
Threat agents may take advantage of secure protocols that use weak methods to
authenticate the endpoints – e.g. a shared password that is guessable or transported as
plaintext. The consequences are the same as a poorly designed protocol, the attacker could
masquerade as the Administrator or another device, and the attacker could insert
themselves into the network stream and perform a man-in-the-middle attack. The result is
the critical network traffic is exposed and there could be a loss of confidentiality and
integrity, and potentially the Network Device itself could be compromised.
• T.UPDATE_COMPROMISE
Threat agents may attempt to provide a compromised update of the software or firmware
which undermines the security functionality of the device. Non-validated updates or updates
validated using non-secure or weak cryptography leave the update firmware vulnerable to
surreptitious alteration.

EX9214 with MACsec
Juniper Networks, Inc.
Version 1.1 Page 15 of 54
• T.UNDETECTED_ACTIVITY
Threat agents may attempt to access, change, and/or modify the security functionality of the
Network Device without Administrator awareness. This could result in the attacker finding
an avenue (e.g., misconfiguration, flaw in the product) to compromise the device and the
Administrator would have no knowledge that the device has been compromised.
• T.SECURITY_FUNCTIONALITY_COMPROMISE
Threat agents may compromise credentials and device data enabling continued access to
the Network Device and its critical data. The compromise of credentials includes replacing
existing credentials with an attacker’s credentials, modifying existing credentials, or
obtaining the Administrator or device credentials for use by the attacker.
• T.PASSWORD_CRACKING
Threat agents may be able to take advantage of weak administrative passwords to gain
privileged access to the device. Having privileged access to the device provides the attacker
unfettered access to the network traffic and may allow them to take advantage of any trust
relationships with other Network Devices.
• T.SECURITY_FUNCTIONALITY_FAILURE
An external, unauthorized entity could make use of failed or compromised security
functionality and might therefore subsequently use or abuse security functions without prior
authentication to access, change or modify device data, critical network traffic or security
functionality of the device.
30. The following additional threats specified in [MACsec] are also detailed for this TOE:
• T.NETWORK_ACCESS
An attacker may send traffic through the TOE that enables them to access devices in the
TOE’s Operational Environment without authorization.
• T.UNTRUSTED_COMMUNICATION_CHANNELS
An attacker may acquire sensitive TOE or user data that is transmitted to or from the TOE
because an untrusted communication channel causes a disclosure of data in transit.
• T.DATA_INTEGRITY
An attacker may modify data transmitted over the MACsec channel in a way that is not
detected by the recipient.
3.2 Assumptions
31. This section describes the assumptions made in identification of the threats and security
requirements for network devices. The network device is not expected to provide assurance in
any of these areas, and as a result, requirements are not included to mitigate the threats
associated. The assumptions made for this TOE are as defined in [NDcPP].
• A.PHYSICAL_PROTECTION
The Network Device is assumed to be physically protected in its operational environment
and not subject to physical attacks that compromise the security or interfere with the
device’s physical interconnections and correct operation. This protection is assumed to be
sufficient to protect the device and the data it contains. As a result, the cPP does not include
any requirements on physical tamper protection or other physical attack mitigations. The
cPP does not expect the product to defend against physical access to the device that allows

EX9214 with MACsec
Juniper Networks, Inc.
Version 1.1 Page 16 of 54
unauthorized entities to extract data, bypass other controls, or otherwise manipulate the
device.
• A.LIMITED_FUNCTIONALITY
The device is assumed to provide networking functionality as its core function and not
provide functionality/services that could be deemed as general purpose computing. For
example, the device should not provide a computing platform for general purpose
applications (unrelated to networking functionality).
• A.TRUSTED_ADMINSTRATOR
The Security Administrator(s) for the Network Device are assumed to be trusted and to act
in the best interest of security for the organization. This includes appropriately trained,
following policy, and adhering to guidance documentation. Administrators are trusted to
ensure passwords/credentials have sufficient strength and entropy and to lack malicious
intent when administering the device. The Network Device is not expected to be capable of
defending against a malicious Administrator that actively works to bypass or compromise
the security of the device.
• A.REGULAR_UPDATES
The Network Device firmware and software is assumed to be updated by an Administrator
on a regular basis in response to the release of product updates due to known
vulnerabilities.
• A.ADMIN_CREDENTIALS_SECURE
The Administrator’s credentials (private key) used to access the Network Device are
protected by the platform on which they reside.
• A.RESIDUAL_INFORMATION
The Administrator must ensure that there is no unauthorized access possible for sensitive
residual information (e.g. cryptographic keys, keying material, PINs, passwords etc.) on
networking equipment when the equipment is discarded or removed from its operational
environment.
The following assumption has been updated as per [MACsec]:
• A.NO_THRU_TRAFFIC_PROTECTION
This assumption is only applicable to interfaces in the TOE that are defined by the [NDcPP].
For these interfaces, the TOE does not provide any assurance regarding the protection of
traffic that traverses it.
3.3 Organizational Security Policies
32. An organizational security policy (OSP) is a set of rules, practices, and procedures imposed by an
organization to address its security needs. There is one single policy applied to this TOE, as
defined in [NDcPP] Section 4.3.
• P.ACCESS_BANNER
The TOE shall display an initial banner describing restrictions of use, legal agreements, or any
other appropriate information to which users consent by accessing the TOE.

4 Security Objectives
33. The security objectives have been taken from [NDcPP] and are reproduced here for the
convenience of the reader. As this TOE is not distributed nor a virtual Network Device, none of
the objectives relating to distributed TOEs or virtual Network Devices are specified for this TOE.
4.1 Security Objectives for the TOE
34. The security objectives for the TOE are trivially determined through the inverse of the statement
of threats presented in [NDcPP] Section 4.1.
35. These are augmented by the statement of security objectives for the TOE in relation to the
MACsec capabilities as detailed in [MACsec] Section 3, namely:
• O.CRYPTOGRAPHIC_FUNCTIONS
The TOE will provide cryptographic functions that are used to establish secure
communications channels between the TOE and the Operational Environment.
• O.AUTHENTICATION
The TOE will provide the ability to establish connectivity associations with other MACsec
peers.
• O.PORT_FILTERING
The TOE will provide the ability to restrict the flow of traffic between networks based on
originating port and established connection information.
• O.SYSTEM_MONITORING
The TOE will provide the means to detect when security-relevant events occur and generate
audit events in response to this detection.
• O.AUTHORIZED_ADMINISTRATION
The TOE will provide management functions that can be used to securely manage the TSF.
• O.TSF_INTEGRITY
The TOE will provide mechanisms to ensure that it only operates when its integrity is
verified.
• O.REPLAY_DETECTION
The TOE will provide the means to detect attempted replay of MACsec traffic by inspection
of packet header information.
• O.VERIFIABLE_UPDATES
The TOE will provide a mechanism to verify the authenticity and integrity of product updates
before they are applied.
4.2 Security Objectives for the Operational Environment
36. The statement of security objectives for the operational environment of this TOE is as defined in
[NDcPP] Section 5.1, with the exception of OE.NO_THRU_TRAFFIC_PROTECTION, whose scope is
modified as per [MACsec] Section 3.2.
• OE.PHYSICAL
Physical security, commensurate with the value of the TOE and the data it contains, is
provided by the environment.

EX9214 with MACsec
Juniper Networks, Inc.
Version 1.1 Page 18 of 54
• OE.NO_GENERAL_PURPOSE
There are no general-purpose computing capabilities (e.g., compilers or user applications)
available on the TOE, other than those services necessary for the operation, administration
and support of the TOE.
• OE.TRUSTED_ADMIN
Security Administrators are trusted to follow and apply all guidance documentation in a
trusted manner.
• OE.UPDATES
The TOE firmware and software is updated by an Administrator on a regular basis in
response to the release of product updates due to known vulnerabilities.
• OE.ADMIN_CREDENTIALS_SECURE
The Administrator’s credentials (private key) used to access the TOE must be protected on
any other platform on which they reside.
• OE.RESIDUAL_INFORMATION
The Security Administrator ensures that there is no unauthorized access possible for
sensitive residual information (e.g. cryptographic keys, keying material, PINs, passwords etc.)
on networking equipment when the equipment is discarded or removed from its operational
environment.
• OE.NO_THRU_TRAFFIC_PROTECTION
Except for interfaces covered by the [MACsec], the TOE does not provide any protection of
traffic that traverses it. It is assumed that protection of this traffic will be covered by other
security and assurance measures in the operational environment.
4.3 Security Objectives rationale
37. As these objectives for the TOE and operational environment are the same as those specified in
[NDcPP] and [MACsec], the rationales provided in the prose of the following are wholly
applicable to this security target as the statements of threats, assumptions, OSPs and security
objectives provided in this security target are the same as those defined in the collaborative
Protection Profile and Extended Package to which this ST claims conformance:
• [NDcPP] Section 4
• [MACsec] Section 3 and Appendix A

5 Security Functional Requirements
38. All security functional requirements are taken from the [NDcPP] and [MACsec]. The Security
Functional requirements are primarily structured according to [NDcPP]. Requirements and
operations from [MACsec] are inserted as appropriate. The SFRs are presented in accordance
with the conventions described in [NDcPP] Section 6.1, and section 1.4 of this document.
39. The TOE is neither distributed nor virtual Network Device. Therefore, none of the security
functional requirements from [NDcPP] relating to distributed TOEs and virtual Network devices
are applicable for the TOE.

44. The detail of what events are to be recorded by syslog are determined by the logging level
specified the “level” argument of the “set system syslog” CLI command. To ensure
compliance with the requirements the audit knobs detailed in
45. [ECG] must be configured.

46. As a minimum, Junos OS records the following with each log entry:
• date and time of the event and/or reaction
• type of event and/or reaction
• subject identity (where applicable)
• the outcome (success or failure) of the event (where applicable).
47. In order to identify the key being operated on, the following details are recorded for all
administrative actions relating to cryptographic keys (generating, importing, changing and
deleting keys):
• CAK – imported key reference is recorded in syslog
• SAK – Key Identifier is recorded in syslog
• KEK, SAK, ICV – key references provided by process id
• SSH session keys– key reference provided by process id
• SSH keys generated for outbound trusted channel to external syslog server
• SSH keys imported for outbound trusted channel to external syslog server
• SSH key configured for SSH public key authentication –the hash of the public key that is
to be used for authentication is recorded in syslog
48. For SSH (ephemeral) session keys the PID is used as the key reference to relate the key
generation and key destruction audit events. The key destruction event is recorded as a session
disconnect event. For example, key generation and key destruction events for a single SSH
session key would be reflected by records similar to the following:
Sep 27 15:09:36 yeti sshd[6529]: Accepted publickey for root from 10.163.18.165 port 45336
ssh2: RSA SHA256:l1vri77TPQ4VaupE2NMYiUXPnGkqBWIgD5vW0OuglGI
…
Sep 27 15:09:40 yeti sshd[6529]: Received disconnect from 10.163.18.165 port 45336:11:
disconnected by user
Sep 27 15:09:40 yeti sshd[6529]: Disconnected from 10.163.18.165 port 45336
49. SSH keys generated for outbound trusted channels are uniquely identified in the audit record by
the public key filename and fingerprint. For example:
Sep 27 23:36:49 yeti ssh-keygen [67873]: Generated SSH key file /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub with
fingerprint SHA256:g+7lsR7x4lQb1JT8Q3scfb2sOl8lyccojGdmkmw4dwM
50. SSH keys imported for use in establishing outbound trusted channels are uniquely identified in
the audit record by the hash of the key imported and the username importing (to which the key
will be bound).
51. It should be noted that SSH keys used for trusted channels are NOT deleted by mgd when SSH is
de-configured. Hence, the only time SSH keys used for trusted channels are deleted is when a
“request vmhost zeroize” action is performed and the whole appliance is zeroized (which by
definition cannot be recorded).
52. All events recorded by syslog are timestamped. The clock function of Junos OS provides a source
of date and time information for the appliance, used in audit timestamps, which is maintained
using the hardware Time Stamp Counter as the clock source. (FAU_GEN.2, FPT_STM.1)
53. Syslog can be configured to store the audit logs locally (FAU_STG_EXT.1), and optionally to send
them to one or more syslog log servers in real time via Netconf over SSH.

FMT_MOF.1/Functions). Local audit log are stored in /var/log/ in the underlying filesystem. Only
a Security Administrator can read log files, or delete log and archive files through the CLI
interface or through direct access to the filesystem having first authenticated as a Security
Administrator. The syslogs are automatically deleted locally according to configurable limits on
storage volume. The default maximum size is 1Gb. The default maximum size can be modified by
the user, using the “size” argument for the “set system syslog” CLI command.
54. The Junos OS defines an active log file and a number of “archive” files (10 by default, but
configurable from 1 to 1000). When the active log file reaches its maximum size, the logging
utility closes the file, compresses it, and names the compressed archive file ‘logfile.0.gz’. The
logging utility then opens and writes to a new active log file. When the new active log file
reaches the configured maximum size, ‘logfile.0.gz’ is renamed ‘logfile.1.gz’, and the active log
file is closed, compressed, and renamed ‘logfile.0.gz’. When the maximum number of archive
files is reached and when the size of the active file reaches the configured maximum size, the
contents of the oldest archived file are deleted so the current active file can be archived.
55. A 1Gb syslog file takes approximately 0.25Gb of storage when archived. Syslog files can acquire
complete storage allocated to /var filesystem, which is platform specific. However, when the
filesystem reaches 92% storage capacity an event is raised to the administrator but the eventd
process (being a privileged process) still can continue using the reserved storage blocks. This
allows the syslog to continue storing events while the administrator frees the storage. If the
administrator does not free the storage in time and the /var filesystem storage becomes
exhausted a final entry is recorded in the log reporting “No space left on device” and logging is
terminated. The appliance continues to operate in the event of exhaustion of audit log storage
space.
7.2 Cryptographic Support
56. Local console access is gained by connecting an RJ-45 cable between the console port on the
appliance and a workstation with a serial connection client.
7.2.1 Algorithms and zeroization

59. All random number generation by the TOE is performed in accordance with NIST Special
Publication 800-90 using HMAC_DRBG implemented in the OpenSSL library and kernel library.
The HMAC_DRBG algorithm is seeded using an software-based entropy source containing a
minimum of 256 bits of entropy. (FCS_RBG_EXT.1.1). Additionally, SHA (256,512) is
implemented in the LibMD library which is used for password hashing by Junos’ MGD daemon.
The appliance is to be operated with FIPS mode enabled.
60. The FIPS approved algorithms are applied when the FIPS mode is enabled. The relevant FIPS
knobs are specified in
61. [ECG]. (FCS_COP.1/DataEncryption, FCS_COP.1/SigGen, FCS_COP.1/Hash,
FCS_COP.1/KeyedHash, FCS_RBG_EXT.1, FCS_CKM.1, FMT_SMF.1)
62. Asymmetric keys are also generated in accordance with FIPS PUB 186-4 Appendix B.3.3 for RSA
Schemes and Appendix B.4.2 for ECC Schemes for SSH communications. The TOE implements
Diffie-Hellman group 14, using the modulus and generator specified by Section 3 of RFC3526.
(FCS_CKM.2, FCS_CKM.1/ND).
63. The following table relates cryptographic algorithms to the protocols by the TOE. The TOE acts as

66. Junos OS does not provide a CLI interface to permit the viewing of keys. Cryptographic keys are
protected through the enforcement of kernel-level file access rights, limiting access to the
contents of cryptographic key containers to processes with cryptographic rights or shell users
with root permission17
. (FPT_SKP_EXT.1)
7.2.2 SSH
67. Junos OS supports and enforces Trusted Channels that protect the communications between the
TOE and a remote audit server from unauthorized disclosure or modification. It also supports
Trusted Paths between itself and remote administrators so that the contents of administrative
sessions are protected against unauthorized disclosure or modification. (FTP_ITC.1,
FTP_TRP.1/Admin)
68. Junos OS provides an SSH server to support Trusted Channels using SSHv2 protocol which
ensures the confidentiality and integrity of communication with the remote audit server. Export
of audit information to a secure, remote server is achieved by setting up an event trace monitor
that sends event log messages by using NETCONF over SSH to the remote system event logging
server. The remote audit server initiates the connection. The SSHv2 protocol ensures that the
data transmitted over a SSH session cannot be disclosed or altered by using the encryption and
integrity mechanisms of the protocol with the cryptographic module. (FTP_ITC.1,
FCS_SSHS_EXT.1)
69. The Junos OS SSH Server also supports Trusted Paths using SSHv2 protocol which ensures the
confidentiality and integrity of user sessions. The encrypted communication path between Junos
OS SSH Server and a remote administrator is provided by the use of an SSH session. Remote
administrators of Junos OS initiate communication to the Junos CLI through the SSH tunnel
created by the SSH session. Assured identification of Junos OS is guaranteed by using public key
based authentication for SSH. The SSHv2 protocol ensures that the data transmitted over a SSH
session cannot be disclosed or altered by using the encryption and integrity mechanisms of the
protocol with the cryptographic module. (FTP_TRP.1/Admin, FCS_SSHS_EXT.1)
70. The Junos OS SSH server is implemented in accordance with RFCs 4251, 4252, 4253, 4254, 4344,
5656 and 6668. Junos OS provides assured identification of the Junos OS appliance though
public key authentication and supports password-based authentication by administrative users
(Security Administrator) for SSH connections. The following table identifies conformance to the
SSH related RFCs:

RFC Summary TOE implementation of Security
RFC 4251 The Secure Shell
(SSH) Protocol
Architecture
Host Keys: The TOE uses an ECDSA Host Key for SSH v2, with a
key size of 256 bits, which is generated on initial setup of the
TOE. It can be de-configured via the CLI and the key will be
deleted and thus unavailable during connection establishment.
This key is randomly generated to be unique to each TOE
instance. The TOE presents the client with its public key and the
client matches this key against its known_hosts list of keys.
When a client connects to the TOE, the client will be able to
determine if the same host key was used in previous
connections, or if the key is different (per the SSHv2 protocol).
Junos OS also supports RSA-based key establishment schemes
with a key size of 2048 bits.
Policy Issues: The TOE implements all mandatory algorithms and
methods. The TOE can be configured to accept public-key based
authentication and/or password-based authentication. The TOE
does not require multiple authentication mechanisms for users.
The TOE allows port forwarding and sessions to clients. The TOE
has no X11 libraries or applications and X11 forwarding is
prohibited.
Confidentiality: The TOE does not accept the “none” cipher.
supports AES-CBC-128, AES-CBC-256, AES-CTR-128, AES-CTR-256
encryption algorithms for protection of data over SSH and uses
keys generated in accordance with “ssh-rsa”, “rsa-sha2-256”,
“rsa-sha2-512”, “ecdsa-sha2-nistp256”, “ecdsa-sha2-nistp384”
or “ecdsa-sha2-nistp521” to perform public-key based device
authentication. For ciphers whose blocksize >= 16, the TOE
rekeys every (2^32-1) bytes. The client may explicitly request a
rekeying event as a valid SSHv2message at any time and the TOE
will honor this request. Re-keying of SSH session keys can be
configured using the sshd_config knob. The data-limit must be
between 51200 and 4294967295 (2^32-1) bytes and the time-
limit must be between 1 and 1440 minutes. In the evaluated
deployment the time-limit must be set within 1 and 60 minutes.
Denial of Service: When the SSH connection is brought down,
the TOE does not attempt to re-establish it.
Ordering of Key Exchange Methods: Key exchange is performed
only using one of the supported key exchange algorithms, which
are ordered as follows: ecdh-sha2-nistp256, ecdh-sha2-nistp384,
ecdh-sha2-nistp521 (all specified in RFC 5656), diffie-hellman-
group14-sha1 (specified in RFC 4253).
Debug Messages: The TOE sshd server does not support debug
messages via the CLI.
End Point Security: The TOE permits port forwarding.
Proxy Forwarding: The TOE permits proxy forwarding.
X11 Forwarding: The TOE does not support X11 forwarding.

RFC Summary TOE implementation of Security
RFC 4252 The Secure Shell
(SSH) Authentication
Protocol
Authentication Protocol: The TOE does not accept the “none”
authentication method. The TOE implements a timeout period
of 30 seconds for authentication of the SSHv2 protocol and
provides a limit of three failed authentication attempts before
sending a disconnect to the client.
Authentication Requests: The TOE does not accept
authentication if the requested service does not exist. The TOE
does not allow authentication requests for a non-existent
username to succeed – it sends back a disconnect message as it
would for failed authentications and hence does not allow
enumeration of valid usernames. The TOE denies “none”
authentication method and replies with a list of permitted
authentication methods.
Public Key Authentication Method: The TOE supports public key
authentication for SSHv2 session authentication. Authentication
succeeds if the correct private key is used. The TOE does not
require multiple authentications (public key and password) for
users.
Password Authentication Method: The TOE supports password
authentication. Expired passwords are not supported and
cannot be used for authentication.
Host-Based Authentication: The TOE does not support the
configuration of host-based authentication methods.
RFC 4253 The Secure Shell
(SSH) Transport
Layer Protocol
Encryption: The TOE offers the following for encryption of SSH
sessions: aes128-cbc and aes256-cbc, aes128-ctr, aes256-ctr.
The TOE permits negotiation of encryption algorithms in each
direction. The TOE does not allow the “none” algorithm for
encryption.
Maximum Packet length: Packets greater than 263K bytes in an
SSH transport connection are dropped and the connection is
terminated by Junos OS.
Data Integrity: The TOE permits negotiation of HMAC-SHA1 in
each direction for SSH transport.
Key Exchange: The TOE supports diffie-hellman-group14-sha1.
Key Re-Exchange: The TOE performs a re-exchange when
SSH_MSG_KEXINIT is received.

Interactive sessions: The TOE only supports interactive sessions
that do NOT involve X11 forwarding.
Forwarded X11 connections: This is not supported in the TOE.
Environment variable passing: The TOE only sets variables once
the server process has dropped privileges.
Starting shells/commands: The TOE supports starting one of
shell, application program or command (only one request per
channel). These will be run in the context of a channel, and will
not halt the execution of the protocol stack.
Window dimension change notices: The TOE will accept
notifications of changes to the terminal size (dimensions) from
the client.

ECDH Key Exchange: The support key exchange methods
specified in this RFC are ecdh-sha2-nistp256, ecdh-sha2-
nistp384, or ecdh-sha2-nistp521. The client matches the key
against its known_hosts list of keys.
Hashing: Junos OS supports cryptographic hashing via the SHA-
1, SHA-256, SHA-384 and SHA-512 algorithms, provided it has a
message digest size of either 256 or 512 bits.Required Curves:
All required curves are implemented: ecdh-sha2-nistp256, ecdh-
sha2-nistp384, or ecdh-sha2-nistp521. None of the
Recommended Curves are supported as they are not included in
[NDcPP].

72. MACsec is implemented in accordance with IEEE 802.1AE-2006 (FCS_MACSEC_EXT.1),
supporting:
• AES 128/256 ciphersuite (without XPN)
• MACsec Key Agreement (MKA) protocol with Static-CAK mode using pre-shared key

• 4 Secure Associations (SA) per SC
73. The TOE accepts pre-shared CAKs for MACsec key agreement protocols as defined by IEEE
802.1X. The TSF accepts bit-based preshared keys entered as a string of up to 64 hexadecimal
characters. (FIA_PSK_EXT.1).
74. A Certificate chain of (pre-shared) CAKs is used to ensure session continuity while enforcing CAK
lifetime. The lifetime of each CAK18
is bounded by start time of next CAK, so a CAK will be
expired when the start time for the next CAK is reached. To prevent unbounded lifetime for final
CAK in chain the Authorized Administrator must ensure the CAK certificate chain is kept
refreshed. The certificate chain length can contain a maximum of 64 keys, so if each CAK is
configured with a start time 24 hours after the previous, the certificate chain needs to be
refreshed once every 60 days to ensure continuity of service (with a few days buffer). The CAK
certificate chain can with be imported as a file or enter through the CLI. (FCS_MACSEC_EXT.4)
75. The CAK Certificate Chain is stored AES-encrypted in a configuration using the System Master
Password. (FPT_CAK_EXT.1)
76. The Line Card can be programed to bypass certain ethertypes. In the evaluated configuration
only Extended Authentication Protocol over LAN (EAPOL - PAE EtherType 88-8E), MACsec frames
(EtherType 88-E5) and and control frames (EtherType is 88-08) are programmed to be bypassed.
This means that only these Ethernet frames will be accepted by the TOE; all other frames will be
rejected. Also, a filter in PFE traps the packets to RE with ether type 88-8E. (FCS_MACSEC_EXT.1)
77. Secure channel is identified by Secure Channel Identifier (SCI) that is comprised of a globally
unique MAC address and a Port Identifier, unique within the system that has been allocated that
address. SCI (8 octets) is appended to every MKPDU packet and the TOE can be configured to
enforce SCI tagging such that packets are rejected if they do not have a valid SCI.
(FCS_MACSEC_EXT.1)
78. Each MACsec Key Agreement protocol data unit (MKPDU) transmitted is integrity protected by
an 128 bit Integrity Check value (ICV), generated by AES- CMAC using the Integrity Check value
Key (ICK). The ICV Key (ICK) is derived from CAK (using AES_CMAC). Before verifying the ICV, the
TOE follows Section 11.11.4 of IEEE 802.1X to discard invalid MKPDUs. In particular, it discards
MKDPUs whenerver:
• the destination address of the MKPDU was an individual address;
• the MKPDU is less than 32 octets long;
• the MKPDU is not a multiple of 4 octets long;
• the MKPDU comprises fewer octets than indicated by the Basic Parameter Set body
length, as encoded in bits 4 through 1 of octet 3 and bits 8 through 1 of octet 4, plus
16 octets of ICV; or
• the CAK Name is not recognized.
(FCS_MKA_EXT.1)
79. The Integrity Check Value (ICV) of MACsec protocol data units (MPDUs) is calculated using the
SAK over the destination address, source address, SecTAG, and user data (after encryption, if
applicable) and is encoded in the last eight to sixteen octets of theMPDU. The length of the ICV
is between 8 and 16 octets, depending on the Cipher Suite. The 64 most significant bits of the
96-bit IV used in generating the ICV are the octets of the SCI and the 32 least significant bits of
the 96-bit IV are the octets of the PN. (FCS_MACSEC_EXT.2)
18
CAK is used to generate KEK, SAK & ICK, so not used directly as encryption key.

80. MACsec allows IPv4/v6 and TCP/UDP headers to be unencrypted while the rest of the frame is
encrypted. The offset value for MACsec protected frames are:
• Offset 0 – Default; Encrypts the entire MPDU payload in the frame
• Offset 30 – IPv4 & TCP/UDP headers are unencrypted and rest of the payload is
encrypted
• Offset 50 – IPv6 & TCP/UDP headers are unencrypted and rest of the payload is
encrypted
81. The MKA is used to maintain MACsec Connectivity Association (CA). The TOE enforces MKA
timeouts in accordance with IEEE 802.1X-2010 and 802.1Xbx-2014 as detailed in Table .

empty.
Table 17 MKA Timeouts
82. Each distributed SAK shall be protected by AES Key Wrap method with Key Encryption Key (KEK)
as key input (FCS_MACSEC_EXT.4). KEK is also derived from CAK. Each participant that considers
itself to be the current Key Server can distribute an SAK by encoding the following information in
transmitted MKPDUs:
• The SAK protected by AES Key Wrap
• The Key Number(KN), 32 bits
83. A fresh SAK is not generated until the Key Server’s Live Peer List contains at least one peer, and
MKA Life Time has elapsed since the prior SAK was first distributed, or the Key Server’s Potential
Peer List is empty and PN number is exhausted
84. SAK is generated using KDF function AES-CMAC-128 or AES-CMAC-256 based on the cipher suite
configured using the following transform function (FCS_MACSEC_EXT.3):
SAK = KDF(Key, Label, KS-nonce | MI-value list | KN, SAKlength)
where
o Key= CAK
o Label= “IEEE8021 SAK”

Version 1.1 Page 48 of 54
o KS-nonce = a nonce of the same size as the required SAK,
obtained from the TOE's approved RNG each time an SAK is generated.
o MI-valuelist = a concatenation of MI values from all live participants
o KN = four octets, the Key Number assigned by the Key Server as part of the KI .
o SAKlength = two octets representing an integer value (128 for a 128 bit SAK, 256 for
a 256 bit SAK) with the most significant octet first.
85. To protect against replay (within the Control Plane) each participant in the protocol chooses a
random 96-bit member identifier (MI) when MKA begins, and this MI is used, together with a 32-
bit message number (MN) initialized to 1 and incremented with each MKPDU transmitted.
(FPT_RPL.1)
86. The Data Plane replay functionality ensures that a man-in-the middle cannot replay a snooped
packet or reuse packet number. As bounded receive delay functionality is not supported, it is
necessary to configure replay protection in the evaluated configuration using replay-protect. The
replay-window-size specifies the number of packets which can be replayed. If set to zero this
means no replays are permitted (and should not be used when out of ordering is expected).
(FPT_RPL.1)
7.3 Identification and Authentication
87. Junos OS enforces binding between human users and subjects. The Security Administrator is
responsible for provisioning user accounts, and only the Security Administrator can do so.
(FMT_SMR.2, FMT_MTD.1/CoreData)
88. Junos users are configured under “system login user” and are exported to the password
database ‘/var/etc/master.passwd’. A Junos user is therefore an entry in the password
database. Each entry in the password database has fields corresponding to the attributes of
“system login user”, including username, (obfuscated) password and login class.
89. The internal architecture supporting Authentication includes an active process, associated linked
libraries and supporting configuration data. The Authentication process and library are
• login()
• PAM Library module
90. Following TOE initialization, the login() process is listening for a connection at the local
console. This ‘login’ process can be accessed through either direct connection to the local
console or following successful establishment of a remote management connection over SSH,
when a login prompt is displayed.
91. This login process identifies and authenticates the user using PAM operations. The login process
does two things; it first establishes that the requesting user is whom they claim to be and second
provides them with an interactive Junos Command interactive command line interface (CLI).
92. The SSH daemon supports public key authentication by looking up a public key in an authorized
keys file located in the directory ‘.ssh’ in the user’s home directory (i.e. ‘~/.ssh/’) and this
authentication method will be attempted before any other if the client has a key available
(FIA_UIA_EXT.1). The SSH daemon will ignore the authorized keys file if it or the directory ‘.ssh’
or the user’s home directory are not owned by the user or are writeable by anyone else.
93. For password authentication, login() interacts with a user to request a username and
password to establish and verify the user’s identity. The username entered by the administrator
at the username prompt is reflected to the screen, but no feedback to screen is provided while
the entry made by the administrator at the password prompt until the Enter key is pressed
(FIA_UAU.7). login() uses PAM Library calls for the actual verification of this data. The
Security Target Junos OS 22.3R1 for MX240, MX480, MX960, EX9204, EX9208 and
EX9214 with MACsec
Juniper Networks, Inc.
Version 1.1 Page 49 of 54
password is hashed and compared to the stored value, and success/failure is indicated to
login(), (FIA_UIA_EXT.1). PAM is used in the TOE support authentication management,
account management, session management and password management. Login primarily uses
the session management and password management functionality offered by PAM.
94. The retry-options can be configured to specify the action to be taken if the administrator fails to
enter valid username/password credentials for password authentication when attempting to
authenticate via remote access (FMT_MTD.1/CoreData). The retry-options are applied
following the first failed login attempt for a given username (FIA_AFL.1). The length of delay (5-
10 seconds) after each failed attempt is specified by the backoff-factor, and the increase of the
delay for each subsequent failed attempt is specified by the backoff-threshold (1-3). The tries-
before-disconnect sets the maximum number of times (1-10) the administrator is allowed to
enter a password to attempt to log in to the device through SSH before the connection is
disconnected. The lockout-period sets the amount of time in minutes before the administrator
can attempt to log in to the device after being locked out due to the number of failed login
attempts (1-43,200 minutes). Even when an account is locked for remote access to the TOE, an
administrator is always able to login locally through the serial console and the administrator can
attempt authentication via remote access after the maximum timeout period of 24 hours.
95. The TOE requires users to provide unique identification and authentication data
(passwords/public key) before any access to the system is granted. Prior to authentication, the
only Junos OS managed responses provided to the administrator are (FIA_UAU_EXT.2):
• Negotiation of SSH session
• Display of the access banner
• ICMP echo responses.
96. Authentication data for fixed password authentication is a case-sensitive, alphanumeric value.
The password has a minimum length of 10 characters and a maximum length of 20 characters.
each passwords must be composed of any combination of upper and lower case letters,
numbers, special characters ( “!”, “@”, “#”, “$”, “%”, “^”, “&”, “*”, “(“, “)”)and any other
standard ASCII, extended ASCII and Unicode characters. (FIA_PMG_EXT.1)
7.4 Security Management
97. Accounts assigned to the Security Administrator role are used to manage Junos OS in accordance
with [NDcPP]. User accounts in the TOE have the following attributes: user identity (user name),
authentication data (password) and role (privilege). The Security Administrator is associated
with the defined login class “security-admin”, which has the necessary permission set to permit
the administrator to perform all tasks necessary to manage Junos OS in accordance with the
requirements of [NDcPP].(FMT_SMR.2)
98. The TOE provides user access either through the system console or remotely over the Trusted
Path using the SSHv2 protocol. Users are required to provide unique identification and
authentication data before any access to the system is granted. (FMT_SMR.2, FMT_SMF.1)
99. The Security Administrator has the capability to:
• Administer the TOE locally via the serial ports on the physical device or remotely over an SSH
connection.
• Initiate a manual update of TOE firmware (FMT_MOF.1/ManualUpdate):
o Query currently executing version of TOE firmware (FPT_TUD_EXT.1)
o Verify update using digital signature (FPT_TUD_EXT.1)

• Manage Functions:
o Transmission of audit data to an external IT entity, including Start/stop and modify

o Configure the access banner (FTA_TAB.1)
o Configure the session inactivity time before session termination or locking, including
termination of session when serial console cable is disconnected (FTA_SSL_EXT.1,
FTA_SSL.3)
o Manage cryptographic functionality (FCS_SSHS_EXT.1), including:
▪ ssh ciphers
▪ hostkey algorithm
▪ key exchange algorithm
▪ hashed message authentication code

• Perform MACsec management functions (FMT_SMF.1):
o Ability to generate a PSK and install it in the device
o CLI commands to manage the Key Server to create, delete, and activate MKA
participants
o Enable, disable, or delete a PSK-based CAK using CLI commands
100. Detailed topics on the secure management of Junos OS are discussed in
101. [ECG].
7.5 Protection of the TSF
102. Junos OS runs the following set of self-tests during power on to check the correct operation of
the Junos OS firmware (FPT_TST_EXT.1):
• Power on test – determines the boot-device responds, and performs a memory size check to
confirm the amount of available memory.
Security Target Junos OS 22.3R1 for MX240, MX480, MX960, EX9204, EX9208 and
EX9214 with MACsec
Juniper Networks, Inc.
Version 1.1 Page 51 of 54
• File integrity test –verifies integrity of all mounted signed packages, to assert that system
files have not been tampered with. To test the integrity of the firmware, the fingerprints of
the executables and other immutable files are regenerated and validated against the SHA1
fingerprints contains in the manifest file.
• Crypto integrity test – checks integrity of major CSPs, such as SSH hostkeys and iked
credentials, such as Cas, CERTS, and various keys.
• Authentication error – verifies that veriexec is enabled and operates as expected using
/opt/sbin/kats/cannot-exec.real.
• Kernel, libmd, OpenSSL, QuickSec, SSH – verifies correct output from known answer tests for
appropriate algorithms.
103. Juniper Networks devices run only binaries supplied by Juniper Networks. Within the package,
each Junos OS firmware image includes fingerprints of the executables and other immutable
files. Junos firmware will not execute any binary without a validating registered fingerprint. This
feature protects the system against unauthorized firmware and activity that might compromise
the integrity of the device. These self-tests ensure that only authorized executables are allowed
to run thus ensuring the correct operation of the TOE.
104. In the event of a transiently corrupt state or failure condition, the system will panic; the event
will be logged and the system restarted, having ceased to process network traffic. When the
system restarts, the system boot process does not succeed without passing all applicable self-
tests. This automatic recovery and self-test behavior, is discussed in Chapter 11 of the
105. [ECG].
106. When any self-test fails, the device halts in an error state. No command line input or traffic to
any interface is processed. The device must be power cycled to attempt to return to operation.
This self-test behavior is discussed in
107. [ECG]. (FPT_FLS.1, FPT_TST_EXT.1)
108. Locally stored authentication credentials are protected (FPT_APW_EXT.1):
• The password is hashed when stored using hmac-sha1, sha256 or sha512.
• Authentication data for public key-based authentication methods are stored in a directory
owned by the user (and typically with the same name as the user). This directory contains
the files ‘.ssh/authorized_keys’ and ‘.ssh/authorized_keys2’ which are used for SSH public
key authentication.
109. Security Administrators are able to query the current version of the TOE firmware using the CLI
command “show version” (FPT_TUD_EXT.1) and, if a new version of the TOE firmware is
available, initiate an update of the TOE firmware. Junos OS does not provide partial updates for
the TOE, customers requiring updates must migrate to a subsequent release. Updates are
downloaded and applied manually (there is no automatic updating of the Junos OS). The
installable firmware package containing the Junos OS has a digital signature that is checked
when the Security Administrator attempts to install the package. (FPT_TUD_EXT.1, FMT_SMF.1,
FMT_MOF.1/ManualUpdate)
110. The Junos OS kernel maintains a set of fingerprints (SHA1 digests) for executable files and other
files which should be immutable. The manifest file is signed using the Juniper package signing
key, and is verified by the TOE using the accompanying digital signature. ECDSA (P-256) with
SHA-256 is used for digital signature package verification.
111. The fingerprint loader will only process a manifest for which it can verify the signature. Thus
without a valid digital signature an executable cannot be run. When the command is issued to
Security Target Junos OS 22.3R1 for MX240, MX480, MX960, EX9204, EX9208 and
EX9214 with MACsec

Version 1.1 Page 52 of 54
install an update, the manifest file for the update is verified and stored, and each
executable/immutable file is verified before it is executed. If any of the fingerprints in an update
are not correctly verified, the TOE uses the last known verified image. (FCS_COP.1/SigGen,
FPT_TUD_EXT.1)
7.6 TOE Access
112. Junos enables Security Administrators to configure an access banner for local and remote SSH
connections provided with the authentication prompt. The banner can provide warnings against
unauthorized access to the secure switch as well as any other information that the Security
Administrator wishes to communicate. (FTA_TAB.1)
113. User sessions (local and remote) can be terminated by users (FTA_SSL.4). The administrative
user can logout of existing CLI and remote SSH sessions by typing logout to exit the session and
the Junos OS makes the current contents unreadable after the admin initiates the termination.
No user activity can take place until the user re-identifies and authenticates.
114. The Security Administrator can set the TOE so that a user session is terminated after a period of
inactivity. (FTA_SSL_EXT.1, FTA_SSL.3) For each user session Junos OS maintains a count of
clock cycles (provided by the system clock) since last activity. The count is reset each time there
is activity related to the user session. When the counter reaches the number of clock cycles
equating to the configured period of inactivity the user session is locked out.
115. Junos OS overwrites the display device and makes the current contents unreadable after the
local interactive session is terminated due to inactivity, thus disabling any further interaction
with the TOE. This mechanism is the inactivity timer for administrative sessions. The Security
Administrator can configure this inactivity timer on administrative sessions after which the
session will be logged out.
7.7 Trusted path/Trusted Channels
116. The TOE supports SSH v2 for trusted channel implementation to Syslog server. The TOE supports
SSH v2 (remote CLI) for secure remote administration of the TOE. Additionally, the TOE
implements the MACsec protocol for the protection of layer 2 communications between itself
and authenticated MACsec peers. (FTP_ITC.1, FTP_TRP.1)
