Synopsis secauthsecret --show secauthsecret --set secauthsecret --remove value | --all Description Use this command to manage the DH-CHAP shared secret key database used for authentication. This command displays, sets, and removes shared secret key information from the database or deletes the entire database. If you are performing set or remove operations, when the command is completed new data is saved persistently. New data is effective with the next authentication request. The configuration applies to a switch instance only. Note The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for details.

When setting secrets for an entry of an EX_Port, the WWN of the entry must be specified. --remove [wwn | domain | swname] Removes the specified WWN entry from the database. If a domain name is specified, it is converted to a WWN and then the entry is removed. When removing an entry of an EX_Port type, the WWN of the entry must be specified.

The minimum length of a secret key is 8 characters and maximum 40 characters. Setting up secret keys does not initiate DH-CHAP authentication. If switch is configured to do DH-CHAP, it is performed whenever a port or a switch is enabled. Warning: Please use a secure channel for setting secrets. Using an insecure channel is not safe and may compromise secrets. Following inputs should be specified for each entry. Fabric OS Command Reference 763 53-1001337-01
