Creating a Security Group
An empty (no members) security group in the active security set will prevent all
connections for that security group type. For example, an empty ISL security
group will cause the switch to refuse all logins from other switches. To add a
security group to a security set, do the following:
1. On the faceplate display, click the Security button on the toolbar, or open
the Security menu and select Edit Security to open the Edit Security dialog.
2. Choose one of the following methods to open the Create a Security Group
dialog:
In the graphic window, click a security set and click the Security
Group button in the toolbar.
Right-click on a security set and select Create a Security Group from
the popup menu.
3. Enter a security group name and select a security group type (ISL, Port, or
MS). Remember, only one security group type (1 ISL, 1 Port, 1 MS) in each
security set is allowed. The naming conventions for security groups are:
Must start with a letter
All alphanumeric chars [aA- zZ] [0-9]
The symbols $ _ - and ^ are the only symbols allowed
4. Click the OK button to save the change.
