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-3for more information about authority levels.

„Refer to the ”User Command” on page B-67for information about creating user accounts.

„Refer to the ”Set Setup Command” on page B-38and the System keyword for information about fabric security and the enforcement of user accounts and authority levels.
