Keywords active
Displays the active security set, its groups, and group members. This keyword
does not require an Admin session.
cancel
Closes a Security Edit session without saving changes. Use the Edit keyword to
open a Security Edit session.
clear
Clears all inactive security sets from the volatile edit copy of the security
database. This keyword does not affect the non-volatile security database.
However, if you enter the Security Clear command followed by the Security Save
command, the non-volatile security database will be cleared from the switch.
edit
Initiates a Security Edit session in which to make changes to the security
database. A Security Edit session enables you to use the Group and Securityset
commands to create, add, and delete security sets, groups, and group members.
To close a Security Edit session and save changes, enter the Security Save
command. To close a Security Edit session without saving changes, enter the
Security Cancel command.
Note: The preferred method for clearing the security database from the
switch is the Reset Security command. Refer to the ”Reset Command”
on page B-27.
