Disable IP Identification Service
Cisco SDM Express disables identification support whenever possible.
Identification support allows you to query a TCP port for identification. This
feature enables an unsecure protocol to report the identity of a client initiating a
TCP connection and a host responding to the connection. With identification
support, you can connect a TCP port on a host, issue a simple text string to request
information, and receive a simple text-string reply.
It is dangerous to allow any system on a directly connected segment to learn that
the router is a Cisco device and to determine the model number and the Cisco IOS
software release being run. This information may be used to design attacks against
the router.
The configuration that will be delivered to the router to disable the IP
identification service is as follows:
no ip identd

Disable CDP
Cisco SDM Express disables Cisco Discovery Protocol whenever possible.
Cisco Discovery Protocol is a proprietary protocol that Cisco routers use to

system on a directly connected segment to learn that the router is a Cisco device
and to determine the model number and the Cisco IOS software release being run.
This information may be used to design attacks against the router.
The configuration that will be delivered to the router to disable
Cisco Discovery Protocol is as follows:
