Figure 36. Notional IMA Design (Example 1)<br />
The devices <strong>in</strong> the figure with an X are IMA devices. It is possible that the normal airplane VPN<br />
design shown will provide adequate support for IMA’s real-time requirements. However, figure<br />
36 assumes a worst-case scenario where this is not the case. Therefore, figure 36 provides an<br />
architecture where very tight real-time requirements for IMA <strong>in</strong>teractions can be supported.<br />
Figure 37 shows the same IMA devices that were <strong>in</strong> figure 36 except they are now deployed<br />
with<strong>in</strong> a system-high environment (i.e., Requirement 6). There needs to be a special process or<br />
policy established with<strong>in</strong> a system-high enclave to enable a system-high situation to exist, s<strong>in</strong>ce<br />
it represents an exception to the direct application of the Biba Integrity Model, which naturally<br />
results <strong>in</strong> MSLS networks (i.e., see Requirement 1 of section 8.2).<br />
