[PATCH 17/21] Mapped CCI-001124 to enable_ip6tables, enable_iptables, httpd_servertokens_prod, and httpd_serversignature_off.

CCI-001124 requires preventing discovery of specific system components (or devices) composing a managed interface. Restricting access via iptables can protect the system from port scanners and other types of similar information gathering techniques. In the case of a web server, which could be allowed through iptables, httpd_servertokens_prod and httpd_serversignature_off restrict the information provided to clients.
