#
   
# Rule ID: RHEL-06-000097_rule
# Severity: medium
# Rule Version (STIG-ID): RHEL-06-000097
# Rule Title: The system must use a reverse-path filter for IPv4 network 
# traffic when possible by default.
#
# Vulnerability Discussion: Enabling reverse path filtering drops packets 
# with source addresses that should not have been able to be received on 
# the interface they were received on. It should not be used on systems 
# which are routers for complicated networks, but is helpful for end hosts 
# and routers serving small networks.
#
# Responsibility: 
# IAControls: 
#
# Check Content:
#
# The status of the "net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter" kernel parameter 
# can be queried by running the following command: 

# $ sysctl net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter

# The output of the command should indicate a value of "1". If this value 
# is not the default value, investigate how it could have been adjusted at 
# runtime, and verify it is not set improperly in "/etc/sysctl.conf". 
# If the correct value is not returned, this is a finding.
#
# Fix Text: 
#
# To set the runtime status of the "net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter" 
# kernel parameter, run the following command: 

# sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter=1

# If this is not the system's default value, add the following line to 
# "/etc/sysctl.conf": 

# net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 1
