Add a switch to a secure fabric

No-Node WWN Zoning Configuration

Fabric Manager allows you to enable or disable No-Node WWN Zoning. When you enable this

feature, security becomes port-oriented. Devices have port and node WWNs. When you disable

node zoning, you ensure that devices with multiple ports cannot access secure fabrics with node

WWNs. You must add individual port WWNs to your policies for devices to access your secure

fabric.

Configuring No-Node WWN Zoning

1. In the Information panel, right-click the secure fabric for which you want to set policies and

choose Security > Security Policy Editor from the context menu.

The Policy Editor appears (see Figure 158 on page 244).

2. Click the Options tab.

3. Perform the appropriate following action based on the task you want to perform:

• To enable No Node WWN Zoning, check the No Node WWN Zoning check box.

• To disable No Node WWN Zoning, clear the No Node WWN Zoning check box.

4. Click the Summary tab.

5. Click Save to save your changes but not apply them, or click Activate to save and apply your

changes.

The Security Policy Review dialog box displays.

6. After reviewing the Security Policy, click one of the following:

• Continue (to continue applying changes or to save your changes)

• Cancel (to cancel your changes)

• Copy to File (to copy the Security Policy to a file)

Add a switch to a secure fabric

If you attempt to add a new switch to a secure fabric using the same method you would use to add

it to a non-secure fabric, the switch is rejected and segmented into its own fabric. For the switch to

be added successfully, secure mode must first be enabled on the switch and then two secure

fabrics must be merged together. For instructions on adding a switch to the SCC policy, see “SCC

policy options configuration” on page 247.

Adding a switch to a secure fabric

1. Enable secure mode on a single switch in a non-secure fabric (see “Create a secure fabric” on

page 241).

2. Merge the two secure fabrics into one fabric using the secure fabric wizard (see “Secure fabric

merge” on page 259).
