For a listing of RBAC permissions for cryptoCfg subcommands, refer to the Fabric OS Encryption

Adminsitrator’s Guide.

Understanding Virtual Fabric restrictions

All Fabric OS commands are subject to additional RBAC enforcement with regard to Virtual Fabric

contexts and switch types. Commands can be executed in one or more of the contexts described in

Table 3. Execution of chassis commands requires chassis permissions.

Switch commands are further defined by the switch type restrictions as described in Table 4.

Switch type restrictions are not applicable to commands that require chassis permissions.

In a Virtual Fabric environment where contexts are enforced, the following Virtual Fabric restrictions

apply to the RBAC permissions specified in

Table 2. Refer to the userConfig command for more

information on configuring user account access permissions in a Virtual Fabric environment.

• Any given role is allowed to execute all switch commands to which the role is authorized in the

account’s home context. The default home context is the default logical fabric FID 128.

• You can change an account’s home context to a specified FID and configure the account

permissions to access additional logical switches specified in the user’s Fabric ID list.

• Accounts with user or admin permissions can be granted chassis permissions. A user account

with the chassis role can execute chassis-level commands at the user RBAC access level. An

admin account with the chassis role can execute chassis-level commands at the admin RBAC

access level.

Use the classConfig --showcli command to look up the Virtual Fabrics context for a specified

command. Refer to

Appendix A, “Command Availability,” for a complete listing of Virtual Fabric

restrictions that apply to the commands included in this manual.
