Secpolicyactivate - Brocade Communications Systems Brocade 8/12c Command Reference Manual

secPolicyActivate

Saves and activates the Defined Security Policy Set.
SYNOPSIS
secpolicyactivate
DESCRIPTION
Use this command to activate the current defined security policy to all switches in the fabric. This
activates the policy set on the local switch or all switches in the fabric depending on the fabric-wide
consistency policy.
If there are changes to the SCC, DCC, or FCS policies in the current CLI or API transaction that have not
been saved to the Defined Security Policy Set, then this command saves the changes to the Defined
Security Policy Set first, and then activates it. If there are no changes, but the Defined Security Policy Set
differs from the Active Security Policy Set, then the Defined Security Policy Set is activated. If there are
no changes and the Defined Security Policy Set is the same as the Active Security Policy Set, then
nothing is done.
After activation the defined policy set becomes the Active Policy Set.
Use secPolicyShow to display the members of an existing policy in the Active or Defined Security Policy
Sets.
NOTES
The behavior of this command is the same for tolerant and strict fabric-wide consistency.
When an FCS policy is enabled, this command can be issued only from the Primary FCS switch.
Any modifications to the SCC, DCC, and FCC DB are saved and activated. When secPolicyActivate is
issued after the secPolicySave command, it might fail.
The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in
place. Refer to Chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS Commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for
details.
