Managing Access Control Lists

Managing Access Control Lists
For switches running Fabric OS v5.2.x and higher, you can create and activate Switch Connection
Control (SCC) and Device Connection Control (DCC) policies in the base Fabric OS that are
functionally equivalent to the SCC and DCC policies supported in Secure Fabric OS.
In Secure Fabric OS, these polices are fabric-wide. In the base Fabric OS (for Fabric OS v5.2.x and
higher), these polices are switch-based; however, you can distribute these policies to all switches in the
fabric.
To manage the ACL policies, the following requirements must be met:
•
You can select only one switch at a time.
•
The switch must be running Fabric OS v5.2.x or higher.
•
Security must not be enabled on the fabric.
•
Your user account must have either the Admin or Fabric Admin role for ACL management.
Fabric Manager launches Web Tools to manage the ACL policies. The following procedure describes
how to launch the Web Tools Switch Admin module from Fabric Manager. See the Web Tools
Administrator's Guide for additional instructions on configuring the SCC and DCC policies.
To manage ACL policies
1. Right-click a switch and select ACL Management from the context menu.
Alternatively, you can select a switch and then click Tasks > Switch Management > ACL
Management from the Menu bar.
The Switch Admin module of Web Tools launches, with the ACL tab selected, as shown in
Figure
See the Web Tools Administrator's Guide for instructions on using this interface.
