Description

This module manages /etc/issue and /ets/issue.net, and has several available file examples.

This is a SIMP module

This module is a component of the System Integrity Management Platform, a compliance-management framework built on Puppet.

If you find any issues, they may be submitted to our bug tracker.

This module is optimally designed for use within a larger SIMP ecosystem, but it can be used independently:

• When included within the SIMP ecosystem, security compliance settings will be managed from the Puppet server.
• If used independently, all SIMP-managed security subsystems are disabled by default and must be explicitly opted into by administrators. Please review the parameters in simp/simp_options for details.

Setup

Include the class to use it:

class { 'issue':
  profile => 'us_doc'
}

Reference

Available issue files are:

• default
• lite
• us_doc
• us_doc_lite
• us_dod
• us_noaa

They can be read in entirety in the files/issue directory.

For further documentation, see REFERENCE.md

Limitations

SIMP Puppet modules are generally intended for use on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and compatible distributions, such as CentOS. Please see the metadata.json file for the most up-to-date list of supported operating systems, Puppet versions, and module dependencies.
