Q
3.6
Fabric Security
You manage fabric security on a switch basis through the creation of user
accounts. Each account consists of an account name, a password, and an
authority level. There are two authority levels: User and Admin. These authority
levels apply to SANbox Manager and to the CLI. User authority permits only
monitoring and display tasks. Admin authority permits all management tasks
including user administration. Furthermore, you can enable or disable the
enforcement of user accounts and authority levels. Consider your fabric security
needs, who the system administrators will be, and authority levels they should
have.
Refer to ”Commands” on page B-3 for more information about authority
levels.
Refer to the ”User Command” on page B-67 for information about creating
user accounts.
Refer to the ”Set Setup Command” on page B-38 and the System keyword
for information about fabric security and the enforcement of user accounts
and authority levels.
