management application to retrieve and administer the fabric and
interconnect elements such as switches, servers, and storage devices.
An access control list (ACL) of WWN addresses determines which
systems have access to the Management Server database. If the list is
empty (default), the Management Server is accessible to all systems
connected in-band to the fabric. For a more secured access, an
administrator may specify WWNs in the ACL. These WWNs are
usually associated with the management applications. If any WWNs
are entered into the ACL, then access to the Management Server is
restricted to only those WWNs listed in the ACL.
