• "Activating changes to ACL policies" on page 116 Simultaneously save and implement all the policy changes made since the last time changes were activated. The activated policies are known as the "active policy set." • "Adding a member to an existing policy" on page 117 Add one or more members to a policy. The aspect of the fabric covered by each policy is closed to access by all devices and switches that are not listed in that policy. • "Removing a member from an ACL policy" on page 117 Remove one or more members from a policy. If all members are removed from a policy, that aspect of the fabric becomes closed to all access. • "Deleting an ACL policy" on page 117 Delete an entire policy; deleting a policy opens up that aspect of the fabric to all access. • "Configuring the database distribution settings" on page 130 Configure a switch to accept or reject the distribution of polices. • "Distributing ACL policies to other switches" on page 131 Configure the distribution of policies to switches within the fabric. Displaying ACL policies To display the ACL policies: 1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role. 2. Issue the secPolicyShow command: switch:admin> secPolicyShow ACTIVE POLICY SET DEFINED POLICY SET switch:admin> FCS policies Fabric Configuration Server (FCS) policy in base Fabric OS may be performed on a local switch basis and may be performed on any switch in the fabric with Fabric OS 6.0.0 or later. Any switch with a pre-5.3.0 version of Fabric OS cannot be included in the FCS list. The FCS policy is not present by default, but must be created. When the FCS policy is created, the WWN of the local switch is automatically included in the FCS list. Additional switches can be included in the FCS list. The first switch in the list becomes the primary FCS switch. Only the primary FCS switch is allowed to modify and distribute the database within the fabric. Automatic distribution is supported and you can either configure the switches in your fabric to accept the FCS policy or manually distribute the FCS policy. Changes made to the FCS policy are saved to permanent memory only after the changes have been saved or activated; they can be aborted later if you have set your fabric to distribute the changes manually.
