(yes, y, no, n): [no] y Request to deactivate MS Platform Service in progress...... *Completed deactivating MS Platform Service in the fabric! switch:admin> Controlling access You can use the msConfigure command to control access to the management server database. An access control list (ACL) of WWN addresses determines which systems have access to the management server database. The ACL typically contains those WWNs of host systems that are running management applications. If the list is empty (the default), the management server is accessible to all systems connected in-band to the fabric. For more access security, you can specify WWNs in the ACL so that access to the management server is restricted to only those WWNs listed. The ACL is switch-based. Therefore, only hosts that are connected directly to the switch are affected by the ACL. A host that is somewhere else in the fabric and is connected to a switch with an empty ACL is allowed to access the management server. To display the management server ACL: 1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin. 2. Enter the msConfigure command. The command becomes interactive. 3. At the select prompt, enter 1 to display the access list. A list of WWNs that have access to the management server is displayed. In the following example, the list is empty: switch:admin> msconfigure 0 Done 1 Display the access list 2 Add member based on its Port/Node WWN 3 Delete member based on its Port/Node WWN select : (0..3) [1] 1 MS Access list is empty. 0 Done 1 Display the access list 2 Add member based on its Port/Node WWN 3 Delete member based on its Port/Node WWN select : (0..3) [1] 0 done ... switch:admin> To add a member to the ACL: 1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin. 2. Enter the msConfigure command. The command becomes interactive. 3. At the select prompt, enter 2 to add a member based on its port/node WWN. 280 Configuring the Distributed Management Server

Controlling access
You can use the
msConfigure
command to control access to the management server database.
An access control list (ACL) of WWN addresses determines which systems have access to the management
server database. The ACL typically contains those WWNs of host systems that are running management
applications.
If the list is empty (the default), the management server is accessible to all systems connected in-band to the
fabric. For more access security, you can specify WWNs in the ACL so that access to the management
server is restricted to only those WWNs listed.
The ACL is switch-based. Therefore, only hosts that are connected directly to the switch are affected by the
ACL. A host that is somewhere else in the fabric and is connected to a switch with an empty ACL is allowed
to access the management server.
To display the management server ACL:
1.
Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2.
Enter the
msConfigure
command.
The command becomes interactive.
3.
At the select prompt, enter
1
to display the access list.
A list of WWNs that have access to the management server is displayed.
In the following example, the list is empty:
