• Remote user restrictions Remote user access to directors is either disabled or restricted to configured IP addresses. • SNMP workstation restrictions SNMP workstations can only access management information base (MIB) variables managed by the director SNMP agent. SNMP workstations must belong to SNMP communities configured through the Product Manager application. If configured, the agent can send authorization failure traps when unauthorized SNMP workstations attempt to access the director. • Audit log tracking Configuration changes to the director are recorded in an audit log stored on the HP EFC Server. Users can display the audit log through the Product Manager application. Log entries include the date and time of the configuration change, a description of the change, and the source of the change. • Port blocking System administrators can block or unblock any port to restrict device access to the director. • Zoning System administrators can create zones that provide director access control to increase network security, differentiate between operating systems, and prevent data loss or corruption. Zoning can be implemented in conjunction with server-level access control and storage device access control. Serviceability Features The director, HP EFC Manager application, and Product Manager application offer the following serviceability features: • Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on director FRUs and the front bezel that provide visual indicators of hardware status or malfunctions. 12 Director Features

Director Features
•
Remote user restrictions
Remote user access to directors is either disabled or restricted to configured IP
addresses.
•
SNMP workstation restrictions
SNMP workstations can only access management information base (MIB) variables
managed by the director SNMP agent. SNMP workstations must belong to SNMP
communities configured through the Product Manager application. If configured, the
agent can send authorization failure traps when unauthorized SNMP workstations
attempt to access the director.
•

EFC Server. Users can display the audit log through the Product Manager application.
Log entries include the date and time of the configuration change, a description of the
change, and the source of the change.
•
Port blocking
System administrators can block or unblock any port to restrict device access to the
director.
•
Zoning
System administrators can create zones that provide director access control to
increase network security, differentiate between operating systems, and prevent data
loss or corruption. Zoning can be implemented in conjunction with server-level access
control and storage device access control.
