Contractor Limited Access

Give the auditing contractor access to exactly one server, nothing else

Scenario

An external auditing contractor needs temporary network access to review logs on the finance reporting server. Per policy, contractors get access to only the specific system they need to work on — nothing else on the finance subnet, nothing else on the network, and no ability to reach the Internet through the corporate network. You've been given the contractor's connection details and the reporting server's location, and asked to set this up.
