3 – Planning Fabric Security
S
b.Create an ISL group (Group_ISL_1) in Security_Set_1 with Switch_1 and Switch_2 as members. The Switch_1 secret must be shared with the Switch_2 security database.
ISL Group on Switch_1: Group_ISL_1
Switch_1
Switch_2
Node WWN: 10:00:00:c0:dd:07:e3:4c
Authentication: CHAP
Primary Hash: MD5
Primary Secret: 0123456789abcdef
Binding: None
Node WWN: 10:00:00:c0:dd:07:e3:4e
Authentication: CHAP
Primary Hash: MD5
Primary Secret: abcdefabcdef012
Binding: None
3.Configure security on HBA_1 using the appropriate management tool. Logins between the Switch_1 and HBA_1 will be challenged (CHAP) for their respective secrets. Therefore, the secrets for Switch_1 and HBA_1 that you configured on Switch_1 must also be configured on HBA_1.
4.Save and activate Security_Set_1 on Switch_1.
5.Create a security set (Security_Set_2) on Switch_2. Create an ISL group (Group_ISL_2) in Security_Set_2 with Switch_1 and Switch_2 as members.
ISL Group on Switch_2: Group_ISL_2
Switch_2
Switch_1
