DHCHAP
Configuring the DHCHAP Timeout Value
To configure the DHCHAP timeout value, perform this task:
Configuring DHCHAP AAA Authentication
You can configure AAA authentication to use a RADIUS or TACACS+ server group. If AAA 
authentication is not configured, local authentication is used by default.
To configure the AAA authentication, see the “Configuring AAA” section on page 1-6.
Displaying Protocol Security Information
Use the show fcsp commands to display configurations for the local database.
The following example shows how to display the DHCHAP configuration for the specified interface:
switch# show fcsp interface fc2/4
 
fc2/4:
fcsp authentication mode:SEC_MODE_ON
Status: Successfully authenticated
The following example shows how to display DHCHAP statistics for the specified interface:
switch# show fcsp interface fc2/4 statistics 
The following example shows how to display the FC-SP WWN of the device connected to the specified 
interface:
switch# show fcsp interface fc2/1 wwn
The following example shows how to display the hash algorithm and DHCHAP groups configured in the 
switch:
switch# show fcsp dhchap
The following example shows how to display the DHCHAP local password database:
switch# show fcsp dhchap database
Tip Use the ASCII representation of the device WWN to configure the switch information on RADIUS and 
TACAC S+ servers.
