HP StorageWorks Fabric OS 5.0.0 Command Reference Guide (AA-RW1MA-TE, May 2005)

324 Fabric OS commands
Configures the Management Server (MS) access control list (ACL).
Synopsis
msconfigure
Availability
admin
Description
Use this command to configure the MS ACL. MS allows a SAN management application to monitor and
administer the fabric and interconnect elements, such as switches. This application is located at the Fibre
Channel well-known address, 0xFFFFFA.
If the MS ACL is empty (default), MS is available to all systems connected to the fabric. By populating the
MS ACL with one or more World Wide Names (WWNs), access to MS is restricted to those WWNs only.
This command is interactive and provides the user with the following menu of choices:
1. Done (with the administration)
2. Display the ACL
3. Add member based on its port/node WWN
4. Delete member based on its port/node WWN
If the MS ACL is changed by adding or deleting WWNs, an additional prompt is given asking if the MS
ACL should be saved to nonvolatile storage. The saved MS ACL becomes effective upon reboot.
The MS ACL is implemented on a per-switch basis and should be configured on the switch to which the
management application is directly connected.
NOTE: When security is enabled, the MS ACL is not used. In such a case, access to MS is controlled by
security by way of the MS_POLICY configuration.
