Configuration Planning Tasks Task 9: Establish Director and HP EFC Server Security Measures Effective network security measures are recommended for directors and the HP EFC Server. Physical access to the network should be limited and monitored, and password control should be strictly enforced. When planning security measures, consider the following: • Directors and the HP EFC Server are installed on a LAN segment and can be accessed by attached devices (including devices connected through a remote LAN). Access from remote devices is limited by installing the HP EFC Server and managed directors on an LAN segment with password protection and appropriate security measures. This approach is recommended. • Remote access to the director is possible through the maintenance port or an internal modem connection to the HP EFC Server. These connections are for use by authorized service personnel only and should be carefully monitored. • The number of remote workstations with access to the HP EFC Server and managed directors can and should be restricted. Obtain IP addresses for workstations that should have exclusive access. Ensure adequate security measures are established for the configured workstations. • Carefully manage users (up to 16) who have access to the HP EFC Manager, Product Manager, and Fabric Manager applications, and assign user names, passwords, and user rights. • Ensure adequate security controls are established for remote access software, including the embedded Web server.
