2 authUtil authinit [slot/]port [, [slot]/port...| allE Reinitiates authentication on selected ports after changing the DH-CHAP group, hash type, and shared secret between a pair of switches. This command does not work on Private, Loop, NPIV and FICON devices. The command can reinitiate authentication only if the device was previously authenticated. This command may bring down the E_Ports if the DH-CHAP shared secrets are not installed correctly. Valid options include: slot Specify the slot number, if applicable, followed by a slash (/). port Specify the port number. On enterprise-class platforms, use the slot/port format for specifying the port number. allE Specify all E_Ports in the switch. Examples To display authentication configuration on the switch: switch:admin> authutil --show AUTH TYPE HASH TYPE GROUP TYPE fcap,dhchap sha1,md5 0,1,2,3,4 Switch Authentication Policy: PASSIVE Device Authentication Policy: OFF To set DH-CHAP as the authentication protocol: switch:admin> authutil --set -a dhchap Authentication is set to dhchap. To set both protocols in order of FCAP and then DH-CHAP: switch:admin> authutil --set -a all Authentication is set to fcap,dhchap. To set DH group 3: switch:admin> authutil --set -g 3 DH Group was set to 3.
