Description
This test verifies that the endpoint attempting to connect to the network does not have a bridged
network connection present. A bridged network connection allows the connecting endpoint to
transparently send traffic to and from another network. An example use of this type of connection
would be to bridge a high-speed cellular network connection in and out of the local network. A
bridged network connection poses a significant security risk.
