Enabling the DCC policy on a trunk area

After you assign a trunk area, the portTrunkArea command checks whether there are any active DCC
policies on the port with the index TA, and then issues a warning to add all the device WWNs to the
existing DCC policy with index as TA.

All DCC policies that refer to an index that no longer exists will not be in effect.

1. Add the WWN of all the devices to the DCC policy against the TA.
2. Enter the secPolicyActivate command to activate the DCC policy.

In order for security to enforce the DCC policy on the trunk ports, you must enable the TA before
issuing the secPolicyActivate command.

3. Turn on the trunk ports.

Turn on trunk ports after issuing the secPolicyActivate command to prevent the ports from
becoming disabled in case there is a DCC security policy violation.

You can configure authentication on all Brocade trunking configurations. For more information on
authentication, refer to

Configuring Security Policies

on page 209.
