Checks whether the configuration read-only mode is enabled for each Server Load Balancer (SLB) instance.

Scenarios

After you modify the configurations of an SLB instance, high security risks may occur. Proceed with caution when you perform the operation.

Risk level

Default risk level: low.

When you apply this rule, you can change the risk level based on your business requirements.

Compliance evaluation logic

  • If the configuration read-only mode is enabled for each SLB instance, the evaluation result is compliant.
  • If the configuration read-only mode is disabled for an SLB instance, the evaluation result is non-compliant. For more information about how to remediate a non-compliant configuration, see Non-compliance remediation.
