  • Page 27: Using Fabric Os Commands

    Chapter Using Fabric OS Commands This chapter explains how to manage a Brocade SAN and Brocade switches and directors using the Fabric OS command line interface (CLI). The following topics discussed: • “Understanding Role-Based Access Control” on page 1 • “Understanding Admin Domain Restrictions”...

  • Page 28: Understanding Admin Domain Restrictions

    Understanding Admin Domain Restrictions Understanding Admin Domain Restrictions A subset of Fabric OS commands is subject to Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place. In order to execute an AD restricted command on a switch or device, the switch or device must be part of a given Admin domain, and the user must be logged into that Admin Domain.
  • Page 29 Using the Command Line Interface The documentation for each command includes a synopsis of its syntax, a description of command use, and a set of examples. The same information can be accessed by issuing help command.on a Brocade switch or director. This command displays the help page (also called man page) for the specified command.

  • Page 32 aaaConfig Operands This command takes as input an action and its associated arguments. Without any specified action, the command prints out the usage. The following operands are supported: server Specifies an IP address or a server name in dot notation. IPv6 addresses are supported.
  • Page 33 aaaConfig The distinction between protocols is only applicable to the packets between a system and the RADIUS server. Between the user and system, passwords are always used. --remove server Removes the specified server from the configuration. The server must match one of the IP addresses or the names shown in the current configuration.
  • Page 34 aaaConfig “ldap;local” Enables the current LDAP configuration as the primary AAA service and the switch-local database as the secondary AAA service. When “ldap” and “local” are specified, if the ADir servers are reachable and the user credentials are correct the user authentication succeeds. If the user provides credentials from the switch database, ADir authentication would fail but login would still succeed through the switch database.
  • Page 35 Specifies all administration domain (Admin Domain)-level operations.

  • Page 36 All switches, switch ports and devices from the fabric that are not specified in any other Admin Domain are treated as implicit members of AD0. Members added to AD0 through --add are called explicit members. As other Admin Domains are created, upon --apply, the members used in those Admin Domains are automatically removed from the implicit member list of AD0.
  • Page 37 Device WWN Uses traditional zone WWN member types. Benefits include: • Supports node or port WWNs. • End-device members, whose WWNs are used in an Admin Domain definition, need not be online when the Admin Domain is created (similar to a zoneCreate operation). •...
  • Page 38 --add ad_id -d "dev_list"-s "switch_list" Adds new members to an existing Admin Domain. The add operation remains in the transaction buffer until you issue ad --apply or ad --save. Saves the current transaction buffer contents to the defined configuration --apply and enforces the defined configuration on all switches in the fabric.
  • Page 39 --rename ad_id new_ad_name Renames the Admin Domain. If a reserved name is used for new_ad_id (AD number format), the operation fails if the reserved name does not correspond to ad_id’s AD number. The rename operation remains in the transaction buffer until you issue ad --apply or ad --save. Saves the outstanding Admin Domain transaction to the defined --save configuration in all the switches in the fabric.
  • Page 40 FC Router Front Phantom Domain and FC Router Translate Phantom Domain are virtual entities without any exposed management interfaces; hence, any FC Router phantom switch WWNs specified in AD's switch member list will be marked as non-Admin Domain aware members. All D,PI members in the device list corresponding to an FC Router Phantom Domain will be marked as non-Admin Domain aware members.
