ISEE security option explanation

Carl Cloutier — Fri, 07 Jan 2005 14:03:40 GMT

I have recently installed ISEE. I have been unable to find an explanation of one of the security options; "Do not allow access to networked computers or peripherals". What does this mean? Is a Fibre Channel attache RAID considered a peripheral? From what perspective is this taken, i.e. from the ISEE client looking out the network?

Thanks,
Carl

Carl,

This setting restricts MAP calls that rely on network access (such as SNMP). Instead of populating return telemetry with valid data, these calls would note a security exception.

ISEE currently does not deploy any MAP functionality that would be affected by this setting.

Hope this helps explain things.
