Most of the security capabilities are driven by the CMC, which provides a mechanism for centralized
configuration of the M1000e enclosure's security settings and user access. It is secured by a user-
modifiable password. The CMC's security features include:
•
User authentication through optional Active Directory and LDAP services or hardware-stored
user IDs and passwords
•
Role-based authority, which enables an administrator to configure specific privileges for each
user
•
User ID and password configuration through the Web interface
•
Web interface supports 128-bit SSL 3.0 encryption and 40-bit SSL 3.0 encryption (for countries
where 128-bit is not acceptable)
•
Configurable IP ports (where applicable)
•
Login failure limits per IP address, with login blocking from the IP address when the limit is
exceeded
•
Configurable session auto time out and number of simultaneous sessions
•
Limited IP address range for clients connecting to the CMC
•
Secure Shell (SSH), which uses an encrypted layer for higher security
•
Single Sign-on, Two-Factor Authentication, and Public Key Authentication
•
Disabling front panel access
