HP StorageWorks 2.140 Director Switch - Manual (Page 112)

Configuring the director 112
Changing a CHAP secret for a detached device
1. Select a device and click Edit.
The Add User dialog box is displayed.
2. Click OK and the CHAP secret for the device is updated in the current local database for the
switch. This device is not actively authenticating with the current switch, so the CHAP secret
needs to be changed for this device locally and for other affected devices.
Removing detached device from a switch
1. Select a detached device and click Remove.
The detached device is not actively authenticating with the current switch, so it is removed.
Enabling or disabling E_port and N_port authentication
Select or clear the check box for E_port or N_port authentication.
The port authentication state overrides the E_port and N_port authentication at the switch level.
Changing enable authentication method
Select an option from the Enable Authentication Method list for E_port or N_port.
• If the Radius Only option is selected, and E_port or N_port authentication is enabled, the
application checks to see if the Radius server settings on the Radius tab have been set.
• If not, the Radius Only and Radius then Local options do not display on the list.
Changing port authentication state for an authenticated device
1. Select a device and choose a different port authentication state.
If the device is already in the authenticated device list, changing the port authentication state
can occur.
Changing port authentication state for a non-authenticated device with or without a CHAP
secret
1. Select a device, and select Force Enabled or Switch Setting from the corresponding
authentication state while the E_port authentication is checked.
If the device has not been transferred to the Authenticated Devices list, Needed is displayed in
the Secret column whether the device has a CHAP Secret or not.
2. Continue configuring multiple port authentication states.
3. Click Apply.
A message is displayed indicating the devices have not been put into the Authenticated Devices
list and as a result the connectivity between the devices and the switch is broken.
4. Click Yes. The authentication is enabled between the current switch and the connected devices
with switch ports set to Enabled.
Or
Click No and return to the Devices tab where you can add the devices to the Authenticated
Devices list.
