Ports that are “visible but closed” result in a failure to connect if a connection attempt is
made to them. Ports that are “not visible” will not respond if a packet is sent to them (i.e.,
the packets are thrown away) and the connection attempt will time out. Ports marked
“visible but unresponsive” will supply a udp-response packet but no service is supplied on
the ports.
All connections on the exposed ports in the evaluated configuration (SSH, CLI, IMC) are
performed using the cipher suites listed below.
AES-128-CBC, AES-192-CBC and AES-256-CBC
AES-128-CTR, AES-192-CTR and AES-256-CTR
Clients that were able to securely connect to a prior InForm OS release may no longer be
able to securely connect. Prior to 3.1.1 MU1, clients could securely connect using the
weaker DES cipher. Since this cipher is no longer accepted, those clients will be unable to
connect unless they are updated to a 3.1.1 MU1 version.

Configurationfor more details.
Host Identity and Authentication
There are four ways that a volume can be exported (i.e., made accessible) to one or more
hosts: Host Sees, Host Set, Port Presents, and Matched Set. Hosts are identified by FC
WWN/ iSCSI name and IP address. However, because Port Presents makes VLUNs
available to any host that connects through that port (via node:slot:port), its use is not
advised to export VLUNs to prevent the possibility of a host gaining access to a volume
that it should not.
