3. Configure the following parameters on the FCSP Authentication dialog box:
a. Select the Enable Authentication check box to enable or disable the authentication policy.
If authentication is enabled, the port attempts to negotiate with the switch. If the switch
does not participate in the authentication process, the port skips the authentication
process.
The Hash type list shows the following options, but only one option, DHNULL, is supported.
• MD5 - A hashing algorithm that verifies a message’s integrity using Message Digest
version 5. MD5 produces a 128-bit digest and is the required authentication
mechanism for LDAP v3 servers.
• SHA1 - A secure hashing algorithm that computes a 160-bit message digest for a data
file that is provided as input.
• MD5SHA1 - Similar to the MD5 hashing algorithm, but used for DH-CHAP
authentication.
• SHA1MD5 - Similar to the SHA1 hashing algorithm, but used for DH-CHAP
authentication.
b. Select DHNULL as the DH-group type value.
c. Type and retype the secret.
The length of the secret must be between eight and 41 characters and the secret field
cannot be blank.
d. Select the Also set on attached switch check box to set or not set the CHAP secret on the
attached switch.
4. Click OK to save the changes and close the dialog box.
FC Security Protocol settings are also applied to the attached switch.
supportSave on adapters
Host management features support capturing support information for managed Brocade adapters,
which are discovered in the Management application. You can trigger supportSave for multiple
adapters at the same time.
You can use Technical Support to collect supportSave data (such as, RASLOG, TRACE and so on)
and switch events from Fabric OS devices.
The switch must be running Fabric OS 5.2.X or later to collect technical support data. In addition,
you must have the supportSave privilege to collect supportSave information.
NOTE
You cannot schedule Host supportSave information
Instructions for scheduling and capturing technical support files are detailed in “Scheduling
technical support information collection” on page 230.
