Table 6 Fabric OS area information (continued) Fabric OS Area Description Security: error counter Telnet security errors that arrive in quick succession are recorded as a single violation by the telnet error counter. For example, a login error from a host whose IP address is 192.168.44.247 is logged as follows: Security violation: Login failure attempt via TELNET/SSH/RSH. IP Addr: 192.168.44.247 If another login violation occurs immediately, the message remains the same and only the error counter is incremented. Security: FCS list Adding switches to the FCS list does not automatically join the switches in a secure fabric. Add the switches to the FCS list of the new switches and the target fabric. Reset the version stamp to 0 and either reset the E_Ports or perform a switch disable and enable for the switches to join. Security: HTTP policy If HTTP_Policy is empty, you will not be able to log in and will receive a Page not found error. This is expected behavior for this policy. Security: invalid certificate Web Tools and Fabric OS are not consistent in how they report switch certificate status. Web Tools reports a valid certificate with extra characters appended to it as invalid, whereas Fabric OS accepts the certificate and allows a secModeEnable command to complete successfully. Security: PKICERT utility, CSR syntax Before using the PKICERT utility to prepare a certificate signing request (CSR), ensure that there are no spaces in the switch names of any switches in the fabric. The web site that processes the CSRs and generates the digital certificates does not accept switch names containing spaces; CSRs that do not conform to this requirement are rejected.

Fabric OS 4.4.0f release notes
Security: error counter
Telnet security errors that arrive in quick succession are recorded as a
single violation by the telnet error counter. For example, a login error from
a host whose IP address is 192.168.44.247 is logged as follows:
Security violation: Login failure attempt via
TELNET/SSH/RSH. IP Addr: 192.168.44.247
If another login violation occurs immediately, the message remains the
same and only the error counter is incremented.
Security: FCS list
Adding switches to the FCS list does not automatically join the switches in
a secure fabric. Add the switches to the FCS list of the new switches and
the target fabric. Reset the version stamp to
0
and either reset the E_Ports
or perform a switch disable and enable for the switches to join.
Security: HTTP policy
If HTTP_Policy is empty, you will not be able to log in and will receive a
Page not found
error. This is expected behavior for this policy.
Security: invalid
certificate
Web Tools and Fabric OS are not consistent in how they report switch
certificate status. Web Tools reports a valid certificate with extra characters
appended to it as invalid, whereas Fabric OS accepts the certificate and
allows a
secModeEnable
command to complete successfully.
Security: PKICERT utility,
CSR syntax
Before using the PKICERT utility to prepare a certificate signing request
(CSR), ensure that there are no spaces in the switch names of any switches in
the fabric. The web site that processes the CSRs and generates the digital
certificates does not accept switch names containing spaces; CSRs that do
not conform to this requirement are rejected.
