The Secure Shell feature provides an encrypted connection between
an SSH client and the switch. The switch acts as an SSH server to
provide secure access to the CLI. This feature solves the telnet issue
of user IDs and passwords being passed “in clear text” between the
telnet and switch. Telnet results in a lack of security as anyone having
access to the IP network or an intermediate IP network, can intercept
the user ID and password and then gain unauthorized access to the
switch.
boundWwn WWN of the device that is being bound to the
specified port. The value must be entered in
colon-delimited hexadecimal notation (for example,
11:22:33:44:55:66:AA:BB).
If the boundWwn is configured and the
portBindState is:
Active—only the device described by boundWwn can
connect to the specified port.
Inactive—the WWN is retained, but any device can
connect to the specified port.
Instead of the WWN, either of two values can be
entered in this parameter:
attached automatically configures the currently
attached device WWN as the bound WWN.
remove changes the WWN to the default value,
00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00.
Even though this removes the WWN-port
association, if the portBindingState value set with the
config.security.portBinding.bound command is still true
(the port binding is active), other devices are
prevented from logging in to this port.
To allow other devices to log in to this port, use the
config.security.portBinding.bound command to set the
portBindingState parameter to false.
