Page 132: Accessing Switches And Fabrics
Fabric OS procedures user guide Note: To maintain a secure network, avoid using telnet or any other unprotected application when you are working on the switch. For example, if you use telnet to connect to a machine and then start an SSH or secure telnet session from that machine to the switch, the communication to the switch is in clear text, and therefore is not secure.

Fabric OS procedures user guide Table 12 lists the defaults for accessing hosts, devices, switches, and zones. Table 12: Access Defaults Area Default Hosts Any host can access the fabric by SNMP. Any host can use telnet to any switch in the fabric. Any host can establish an HTTP connection to any switch in the fabric.

Page 185 Fabric OS reference guide For each hop, statistics are divided into basic and extended. They are reported below the routing information, separated into input port statistics and output port statistics. For each port, they are further separated into transmit and receive statistics. Statistics are not reported for the embedded port.
Page 186 Fabric OS reference guide Source route The source route option allows the user to specify a sequence of switches or ports (or areas) that the pathinfo frame has to follow to reach the destination. Therefore, the path might be different from the one the actual traffic from source to destination takes.

Page 200 Fabric OS reference guide The long-distance level string must be one of the following: Reconfigure the port to be a regular switch port. The number of buffers reserved for the port supports up to 10 km links at 1 Gbit/sec. Level E mode is for E_Ports for distances beyond 5 km and up to 10 km.
Page 201 Fabric OS reference guide See the “Description” on page 199 section for the VC_translation_link_init meaning of this value. The default value is 1 when not specified with the long-distance setting. Therefore, the command portcfglongdistance port_number implies portcfglongdistance port_number, LD, 1.

Page 210 Fabric OS reference guide To set the shared secrets with a WWN, interactively: switch:admin> secAuthSecret "--set" This command is used to set up secret keys for the DH-CHAP authentication. The minimum length of a secret key is 8 characters and maximum 40 characters.
Page 211: Secmodeenable
Fabric OS reference guide secmodeenable Enables secure mode. Syntax secmodeenable [“--quickmode”] | [[“--currentpwd”] [“--lockdown[=scc|=dcc]”][“--fcs list-of-switches” | list-of-switches]] Availability Admin Description Use this command to enable secure mode on all switches in the fabric. The command fails if any switch in the fabric is not capable of enforcing the security policies defined in the security database.
Page 212 Fabric OS reference guide Note: Ensure that all users (using Fabric OS CLI or Web Tools) are logged off the fabric before enabling secure mode. Users, whose account passwords are changed, are logged off once secure mode is enabled. The --currentpwd option uses the current passwords on the primary FCS; hence, users logged into the primary FCS are not logged off.
Page 213 Fabric OS reference guide Shorthand notation for a combination of the previous --quickmode options; for example, --currentpwd --lockdown --fcs *. On successful execution of the command, security is enabled in the fabric. All switches are FCS and have passwords identical to that on the primary FCS, SCC, and DCC policies, capturing the current state of the fabric.
