HP StorageWorks 2.128 SAN Director Switch - Manual (Page 124)

124 Configuring the Distributed Management Server
For example:
Controlling access
You can use the
msConfigure
command to control access to the management server database.
An 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 only to 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.
NOTE: The
msConfigure
command is disabled if the switch is in secure mode. See the HP
StorageWorks Secure Fabric OS administrator guide for more information.
