Discussion

Access to the MFD or printer from outside the enclave network could lead to a denial of service caused by a large number of large print files being sent to the device. Ability for the MFD or printer to access addresses outside the enclave network could lead to a compromise of sensitive data caused by forwarding a print file to a location outside of the enclave network. This also prevents accidental implementation of a “call-home” feature that is not allowed.
