Fabric OS procedures user guide 6 This chapter contains updates to the HP StorageWorks Fabric OS Procedures Version 3.1.x/4.1.x User Guide, part number AA-RS23C-TE. On page 47, in the section "Domain IDs," add the following information: Domain IDs are assigned dynamically when a switch is enabled. The domain ID can be set manually, however, to control the number or to resolve a domain ID conflict when merging fabrics. Note: If a switch already has a domain ID and that domain ID conflicts with a switch already in the fabric, the conflict is resolved. If a switch with a conflicting domain ID is hot-plugged or connected to a fabric while it is enabled, it segments with a domain overlap message. Add the following new chapter after Chapter 2: Configuring Standard Security Features This chapter provides information and procedures for standard Fabric OS security features. Standard Fabric OS security features include account and password management. Additional security is available when secure mode is enabled. For information about licensed security features available in Secure Fabric OS, refer to the HP StorageWorks Secure Fabric OS Version 1.0 User Guide. Ensuring Network Security To ensure security, Fabric OS supports secure shell (SSH) encrypted sessions. SSH encrypts all messages, including the client's transmission of password during login. The SSH package contains a daemon (sshd), which runs on the switch. The daemon supports a wide variety of encryption algorithms, such as Blowfish-CBC and AES. Fabric OS 3.x Document Addendum 131
