Dell Most of the security capabilities are driven by the CMC, which provides a mechanism for centralized configuration of the M1000e enclosure's security settings and user access. It is secured by a usermodifiable password. The CMC's security features include: • User authentication through optional Active Directory and LDAP services or hardware-stored user IDs and passwords • Role-based authority, which enables an administrator to configure specific privileges for each user • User ID and password configuration through the Web interface • Web interface supports 128-bit SSL 3.0 encryption and 40-bit SSL 3.0 encryption (for countries where 128-bit is not acceptable) • Configurable IP ports (where applicable) • Login failure limits per IP address, with login blocking from the IP address when the limit is exceeded • Configurable session auto time out and number of simultaneous sessions • Limited IP address range for clients connecting to the CMC • Secure Shell (SSH), which uses an encrypted layer for higher security • Single Sign-on, Two-Factor Authentication, and Public Key Authentication • Disabling front panel access PowerEdge M1000e Technical Guide 25

Most of the security capabilities are driven by the CMC, which provides a mechanism for centralized
configuration of the M1000e enclosure’s security settings and user access.
It is secured by a user-
modifiable password. The
CMC’s security features include:
User authentication through optional Active Directory and LDAP services or hardware-stored
user IDs and passwords
Role-based authority, which enables an administrator to configure specific privileges for each
user
User ID and password configuration through the Web interface
Web interface supports 128-bit SSL 3.0 encryption and 40-bit SSL 3.0 encryption (for countries
where 128-bit is not acceptable)
Configurable IP ports (where applicable)
Login failure limits per IP address, with login blocking from the IP address when the limit is
exceeded
Configurable session auto time out and number of simultaneous sessions
Limited IP address range for clients connecting to the CMC
Secure Shell (SSH), which uses an encrypted layer for higher security
Single Sign-on, Two-Factor Authentication, and Public Key Authentication
Disabling front panel access
