Fabric OS 6.1.x administrator guide

Adding a member to an existing policy
” on page115
Add one or more members to a policy. The aspect of the fabric covered by each policy is closed to
access by all devices and switches that are not listed in that policy.
Removing a member from an ACL policy
” on page115
Remove one or more members from a policy. If all members are removed from a policy, that aspect of
the fabric becomes closed to all access.
Deleting an ACL policy
” on page115
Delete an entire policy; deleting a policy opens up that aspect of the fabric to all access.
Configuring the database distribution settings
” on page 129
Configure a switch to accept or reject the distribution of polices.
Distributing ACL policies to other switches
” on page 130
Configure the distribution of policies to switches within the fabric.
Displaying ACL policies
Use the
secPolicyShow
command to display the active and defined policy sets. Additionally, in a
defined policy set, policies created in the same login session also appear but these policies are
automatically deleted if the user logs out without saving. The following example shows a switch that has no
SCC, DCC, and FCS policies.
To display the ACL policies:
1.
Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role.
2.
Type the
secPolicyShow
command:
switch:admin>
secPolicyShow
____________________________________________________
ACTIVE POLICY SET
____________________________________________________
DEFINED POLICY SET
switch:admin>
Configuring an FCS policy
Fabric Configuration Server (FCS) policy in base Fabric OS may be performed on a local switch basis and
may be performed on any switch in the fabric with Fabric OS 6.0.0 or later. Any switch with a pre-5.3.0
version of Fabric OS cannot be included in the FCS list.
The FCS policy is not present by default, but must be created using the command
secPolicyCreate
using CLI or from a management interface. When the FCS policy is created, the WWN of the local switch
is automatically included in the FCS list. Additional switches can be included in the FCS list by invoking the
secPolicyAdd
command or using a manageability interface. The first switch in the list becomes the
primary FCS switch.
Only the primary FCS switch is allowed to modify and distribute the database within the fabric. Automatic
distribution is supported and you can either configure the switches in your fabric to accept the FCS policy
using the
fddcfg
--
fabswideset
command or manually distribute the FCS policy using the
distribute -p
command. Changes made to the FCS policy are saved to permanent memory only after
