List of the organization's VLANs, along with the systems (network devices, etc.) associated with administering, configuring, and filtering between them #. Approved configuration(s) for these VLANs and related systems to enable firewall filtering between VLANs Operations ---------- #. For each VLAN in Input 1, check each of its related systems to see if they are configured in accordance with the appropriate approved configurations from Input 2 to enable firewall filtering between VLANs. #. Create a list of VLANs that are correctly configured (M1) #. Create a list of VLANs that are not correctly configured (M2) noting which related systems are misconfigured and the details of the misconfiguration. Measures -------- * M1 = List of correctly configured VLANs (compliant list) * M2 = List of incorrectly configured VLANs along with deviations (non-compliant list) * M3 = Count of correctly configured VLANs (count of M1) * M4 = Total count of VLANs (count of Input 1) Metrics ------- Coverage ^^^^^^^^ .. list-table:: * - **Metric** - | The ratio of VLANs properly configured for firewall filtering to the total number of | VLANs. * - **Calculation** - :code:`M3 / M4` .. history .. authors .. license
