Security

Chapter Description

This sample chapter from Understanding and Troubleshooting Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers covers the security aspects of the Catalyst 9800 controller. The biggest aspect revolves around AAA, which is either locally handled by the controller or delegated to an external RADIUS or TACACS server.

Cisco Secure Development Lifecycle (CSDL)

Cisco Secure Development Lifecycle is at the heart of new Cisco development, and the Catalyst 9800 controller fully embraces the CSDL concepts. These requirements are broad and range from code validation to vulnerability and penetration testing, to default settings on the devices or the use of third-party modules in the code. Security is a never-ending journey, and the Catalyst 9800 controller keeps implementing stricter and stricter security guidelines and principles with every release.
