3.1.1

User Authentication

User authentication means that the switch validates your account name and

password when you attempt to add a fabric in SANbox Manager or to log in to a

switch through Telnet. Your system administrator defines account names,

passwords, the authority level, and expiration date.

When logging in to a switch through Telnet, you must enter an account name and

password to access the switch. SANbox Manager, however, does not require an

account name and password to add a fabric unless fabric security is enabled. The

switch comes from the factory with fabric security disabled. Fabric security is

controlled by the SecurityEnabled parameter which is set by the Set Setup

System command. Fabric security must be configured the same for all switches in

the fabric. Refer to the ”Set Setup Command” on page A-42 for more information.

When you add a fabric and fabric security is disabled, SANbox Manager ignores

the account name and password entries and logs you in using the default account

name and password (admin, password). This account name possesses Admin

authority which grants full access to all tasks of the SANbox Manager menu

system. If fabric security is enabled, you must enter an account name and

password. The switch validates your account name and SANbox Manager grants

access to its menus according to your authority level. If you do not have Admin

authority, you are limited to monitoring tasks.
