Tracking smart cards
1. Select Configure > Encryption from the menu task bar to display the Encryption Center
dialog box. (Refer to Figure 6 on page 14.)
2. Select Smart Card > Smart Card Tracking from the menu task bar to display the Smart Card
Asset Tracking dialog box. (Refer to Figure 12.)
The Smart Cards table lists the known smart cards and the details for the smart cards. These
details include the following:
• Card ID: Lists the smart card ID, prefixed with an ID that identifies how the card id used.
For example, rc.123566b700017818, where rc stands for recovery card.
• Card Type: Options are: System card, Authentication card, and Recovery set.
• Usage: Usage content varies based on the card type.
- For authentication cards, the Usage column shows the number of groups for which the
card is registered.
- For system cards, the Usage column shows the number of encryption engines for
which the card is registered.
- For recovery cards, the Usage column shows the group name and the creation date.
• First Name: The first name of the person (up to 64 characters) to whom the smart card is
assigned. All characters are valid in the editable columns, including spaces. Editing these
values in the Brocade Network Advisor application does not modify the information that is
stored on the card.
• Last Name: The last name of the person (up to 64 characters) to whom the smart card is
assigned. All characters are valid in the editable columns, including spaces. Editing these
values in the Brocade Network Advisor application does not modify the information that is
stored on the card.
• Notes: Miscellaneous notes (up to 256 characters) related to the smart card. Editing these
values in the Brocade Network Advisor does not modify the information that is stored on
the card. Notes are optional.
• Delete button: Deletes a selected smart card from the Brocade Network Advisor database.
NOTE
You can remove smart cards from the table to keep the Smart Cards table at a
manageable size, but removing the card from the table does not invalidate it; the smart
card can still be used.
• Save As button: Saves the entire list of smart cards to a file. The available formats are
comma-separated values (.csv) and HTML (.html).
• Card Details table: Card details vary based on the card type.
• For authentication cards, the Card Details table shows all group names for which the
card is registered.
• For system cards, the Card Details table shows all encryption engines for which the
card is registered by switch name and, for encryption blades, slot number.
• For recovery cards, the Card Details table shows the group name, the card creation
date, and the position of the card in the set (for example, Card 1 of 3).
