4.2.1 Configuring Master KDC Information

This procedure configures the switch to act as the master KDC authentication server for all Kerberos enabled

Note If using a master and slave switch configuration, ensure that each switch is
named appropriately (using the CLI) in order to avoid two devices with the same
name on the network.
To configure master KDC information, follow these steps:
1. From the WS5000 Series Switch GUI main window, click System Settings > Kerberos >
Configuration > KDC. The Kerberos Security Manager dialog box appears.
