Any Telnet attempts from an IP address or subnet that does not appear in the policy will fail. Caution If you create an empty policy, you prevent all Telnet access to your fabric. Configure the RSNMP policy (read-only SNMP policy) to limit SNMP access to specific, trusted management stations in your environment. You cannot create an RSNMP policy without a WSNMP policy already present. Configure the WSNMP policy (read/write SNMP policy) to limit SNMP access to specific, trusted management stations in your environment. When you add a member to the WSNMP policy, that member automatically gains RSNMP access. Configure the HTTP policy to grant access to IP addresses and subnets so they can establish HTTP connections to the switches in the fabric. Create an API policy to control the workstations that can use the API to access the fabric. To configure/edit any of these policies 1. In the Information Panel, right-click the secure fabric for which you want to set policies and choose Security > Security Policy Editor from the context menu. The Policy Editor appears (see Figure 17-3 on page 17-4). 2. Click the tab that corresponds to the policy you want (Telnet, RSNMP, WSNMP, HTTP, or API). The selected policy appears. The Telnet policy is used in this example (see Figure 17-6 on page 17-8). The RSNMP, WSNMP, HTTP, and API policies are similar.
