secAuthCertificate 2 secAuthCertificate Configures FCAP certificate for authentication with peer switches Synopsis secauthcertificate --show secauthcertificate --set [-wwn wwn | -did domain_id |-all] [ -usecert brcd | thirdparty] secauthcertificate --remove [-wwn wwn | -did domain_id |-all] secauthcertificate --help Description Use this command to manage certificates for FCAP authentication on a switch. FCAP requires the exchange of certificates between two or more switches to authenticate each other before they are allowed to join fabric. FCAP certificates can be issued by Brocade or any third party CA. Use this command to add, remove, or display the switches in the certificate database. When adding switches, you can specify the type of certificate to be used in the authentication. Brocade and third Party certificates are supported. Fabric OS supports two authentication protocols, DHCHAP and FCAP. By default, FCAP is the default switch authentication protocol. Use the authUtil command to configure the authentication protocol. Note The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for details.
