Re: [AusNOG] Bouncing Cisco Equipment and "Smart Install"

Hi Michael, When I recently deployed a few 9300's in our DC, this feature was disabled before bringing in external connectivity because one of our engineers here was aware of this vulnerability and removed it. It's enabled out of the box because the idea is that it's for zero-touch initial

Re: [AusNOG] Issues receiving from TPG Mail servers.

Addressing the issue at hand, can you set your MTA not to offer STARTTLS command in the EHLO towards the TPG IP addresses, to force them to use the unencrypted channel? Surely others who have played with their TLS1.2 settings on their MTA's are having this issue as well with TPG; how would

Re: [AusNOG] Issues receiving from TPG Mail servers.

Given plenty of mail communication is still non-encrypted, having TLS1.0 is an improvement, granted 1.2 is the ultimate goal. But shouldn't your public mail server be out of scope for PCI? Surely it's not handling cardholder data, nor talking to a system that is, therefore should be excluded

Re: [AusNOG] Issues receiving from TPG Mail servers.

On the PCI Audit side of things, however, I think the shared hosting such as CPanel servers will fail PCI based on requirement 2.2.1 regardless-- " Implement only one primary function per server to prevent functions that require different security levels from co-existing on the same server.
