Remote Access Policies

Cisco UCS Central supports global remote access policies defining the interfaces monitoring policy, displaying SSH configuration status, and providing policy settings for HTTP, Telnet, web session limits and CIM XML.

Configuring HTTP

Configuring an HTTP Remote Access Policy

Before You Begin

Before configuring an HTTP remote access policy under a domain group, this policy must first be created. Policies under the Domain Groups root were already created by the system and ready to configure.

Procedure
      Command or Action Purpose
    Step 1 UCSC# connect policy-mgr  

    Enters policy manager mode.

     
    Step 2 UCSC(policy-mgr)# scope domain-group domain-group  

    Enters domain group root mode and (optionally) enters a domain group under the domain group root. To enter the domain group root mode, type / as the domain-group.

     
    Step 3 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group # create http   (Optional)

    If scoping into a domain group previously, creates the HTTP policy for that domain group.

     
    Step 4 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group # scope http   (Optional)

    If scoping into the domain group root previously, scopes the default HTTP policy's configuration mode from the Domain Group root.

     
    Step 5 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http # enable | disable {http | http-redirect}  

    Specifies whether the HTTP remote access policy is enabled or disabled in HTTP or HTTP-Redirect mode.

     
    Step 6 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http* # set http port port-number  

    Specifies the HTTP service port number from the port range 1-65535.

     
    Step 7 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http* # commit-buffer  

    Commits the transaction to the system configuration.

     

    The following example shows how to scope into the domain group root (which has an existing HTTP policy by default), enable the HTTP remote access policy to HTTP redirect mode, set the HTTP service port to 1111, and commit the transaction:

    UCSC # connect policy-mgr
    UCSC(policy-mgr)# scope domain-group /
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group # scope http
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http # enable http-redirect
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http* # set port 1111
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http* # commit-buffer
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http # 
    
    

    The following example shows how to scope into the domain group domaingroup01, create the HTTP remote access policy and enable it to HTTP mode, set the HTTP service port to 222, and commit the transaction:

    UCSC # connect policy-mgr
    UCSC(policy-mgr)# scope domain-group domaingroup01
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group # create http
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http* # enable http
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http* # set port 222
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http* # commit-buffer
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http # 
    
    

    The following example shows how to scope into the domain group root (which has an existing HTTP policy by default), disable the HTTP remote access policy for HTTP redirect mode, and commit the transaction:

    UCSC # connect policy-mgr
    UCSC(policy-mgr)# scope domain-group /
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group # scope http
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http # disable http-redirect
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http* # commit-buffer
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http # 
    
    

    The following example shows how to scope into the domain group domaingroup01, disable the HTTP remote access policy for HTTP mode, and commit the transaction:

    UCSC # connect policy-mgr
    UCSC(policy-mgr)# scope domain-group domaingroup01
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http # disable http
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http* # commit-buffer
    UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/http #

                    What to Do Next

                    Optionally, configure the following remote access policies:

                    • HTTP
                    • Telnet
                    • Web Session Limits
                    • CIM XML

                    Deleting an Interfaces Monitoring Remote Access Policy

                    An interfaces monitoring remote access policy is deleted from a domain group under the domain group root. Interfaces monitoring remote access policies under the domain groups root cannot be deleted.

                    Procedure
                        Command or Action Purpose
                      Step 1 UCSC# connect policy-mgr  

                      Enters policy manager mode.

                       
                      Step 2 UCSC(policy-mgr)# scope domain-group domain-group  

                      Enters a domain group under the domain group root.

                      Note   

                      Do not enter the domain group root itself. System default Management Interfaces Monitoring policies cannot be deleted under the domain group root.

                       
                      Step 3 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group # delete mgmt-if-mon-policy  

                      Deletes the Management Interfaces Monitoring policy for that domain group.

                       
                      Step 4 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group* # commit-buffer  

                      Commits the transaction to the system configuration.

                       

                      The following example shows how to scope into the domain group domaingroup01, delete the Management Interfaces Monitoring policy, and commit the transaction:

                      UCSC # connect policy-mgr

                      SNMP Policies

                      Cisco UCS Central supports global SNMP policies enabling or disabling, defining SNMP traps and SNMP users (with regular and privacy passwords, authentication types of md5 or sha, and option for AES-128). Registered Cisco UCS domains choosing to define SNMP policies globally within that client's policy resolution control will defer all SNMP policies to its registration with Cisco UCS Central.

                      Configuring an SNMP Policy

                      Before You Begin

                      Before configuring a SNMP policy under a domain group, this policy must first be created. Policies under the Domain Groups root were already created by the system and ready to configure.

                      Procedure
                          Command or Action Purpose
                        Step 1 UCSC# connect policy-mgr  

                        Enters policy manager mode.

                         
                        Step 2 UCSC(policy-mgr)# scope domain-group domain-group  

                        Enters domain group root mode and (optionally) enters a domain group under the domain group root. To enter the domain group root mode, type / as the domain-group.

                         
                        Step 3 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group # create snmp   (Optional)

                        If scoping into a domain group previously, creates the SNMP policy for that domain group.

                         
                        Step 4 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group # scope snmp   (Optional)

                        If scoping into the domain group root previously, scopes the default SNMP policy's configuration mode from the Domain Group root.

                         
                        Step 5 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp* # enable | disable snmp  

                        Enable or disable SNMP services for this policy.

                         
                        Step 6 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp* # set community snmp-community-name-text  

                        Enter a name for the SNMP community.

                         
                        Step 7 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp* # set syscontact syscontact-name-text  

                        Enter a name for the SNMP system contact.

                         
                        Step 8 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp* # set syslocation syslocation-name-text  

                        Enter a name for the SNMP system location.

                         
                        Step 9 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp* # commit-buffer  

                        Commits the transaction to the system configuration.

                         

                        The following example shows how to scope into the Domain Group root, scope the SNMP policy, enable SNMP services, set the SNMP community name to SNMPCommunity01, set the SNMP system contact name to SNMPSysAdmin01, set the SNMP system location to SNMPWestCoast01, and commit the transaction:

                        UCSC # connect policy-mgr
                        UCSC(policy-mgr)# scope domain-group /
                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group # scope snmp
                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp # enable snmp
                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp* # set community SNMPCommunity01
                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp* # set syscontact SNMPSysAdmin01
                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp* # set syslocation SNMPWestCoast01

                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp # 
                        
                        

                        The following example shows how to scope into the Domain Group domaingroup01, create the SNMP policy, enable SNMP services, set the SNMP community name to SNMPCommunity01, set the SNMP system contact name to SNMPSysAdmin01, set the SNMP system location to SNMPWestCoast01, and commit the transaction:

                        UCSC # connect policy-mgr
                        UCSC(policy-mgr)# scope domain-group domaingroup01
                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group # create snmp
                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp* # enable snmp
                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp* # set community SNMPCommunity01
                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp* # set syscontact SNMPSysAdmin01
                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp* # set syslocation SNMPWestCoast01
                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp* # commit-buffer
                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp # 
                        
                        

                        The following example shows how to scope into the domain group domaingroup01, scope the SNMP policy, disable SNMP services, and commit the transaction:

                        UCSC # connect policy-mgr
                        UCSC(policy-mgr)# scope domain-group domaingroup01
                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group # scope snmp

                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp* # commit-buffer
                        UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp # 
                        

                        Deleting an SNMP Policy

                        A SNMP policy is deleted from a domain group under the domain group root. SNMP policies under the domain groups root cannot be deleted.

                        Deleting an SNMP policy will remove all SNMP trap and SNMP User settings within that policy.

                        Procedure
                            Command or Action Purpose
                          Step 1 UCSC# connect policy-mgr  

                          Enters policy manager mode.

                           
                          Step 2 UCSC(policy-mgr)# scope domain-group domain-group  

                          Enters a domain group under the domain group root.

                          Note   

                          Do not enter the domain group root itself. System default Management Interfaces Monitoring policies cannot be deleted under the domain group root.

                           
                          Step 3 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group # delete snmp  

                          Deletes the SNMP policy for that domain group.

                                The following example shows how to scope into the Domain Group root, scope the SNMP policy, scope into the SNMP user named snmpuser01, set aes-128 mode to disabled, set authorization to md5 mode, and commit the transaction:

                                UCSC # connect policy-mgr
                                UCSC(policy-mgr)# scope domain-group /
                                UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group # scope snmp
                                UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp # scope snmp-user snmpuser01
                                UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp/snmp-user # set aes-128 no
                                UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp/snmp-user* # set auth md5
                                UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp/snmp-user* # commit-buffer
                                UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp/snmp-user # 
                                

                                Deleting an SNMP User

                                Procedure
                                    Command or Action Purpose
                                  Step 1 UCSC# connect policy-mgr  

                                  Enters policy manager mode.

                                   
                                  Step 2 UCSC(policy-mgr)# scope domain-group domain-group  

                                  Enters domain group root mode and (optionally) enters a domain group under the domain group root. To enter the domain group root mode, type / as the domain-group.

                                   
                                  Step 3 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group # scope snmp  

                                  Scopes the SNMP policy's configuration mode.

                                   
                                  Step 4 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp # delete snmp-user snmp-user  

                                  Delete the SNMP user.

                                   
                                  Step 5 UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp* # commit-buffer  

                                  Commits the transaction to the system configuration.

                                   

                                  The following example shows how to scope into the Domain Group root, scope the SNMP policy, delete the SNMP user named snmpuser01, and commit the transaction:

                                  UCSC # connect policy-mgr
                                  UCSC(policy-mgr)# scope domain-group /
                                  UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group # scope snmp
                                  UCSC(policy-mgr) /domain-group/snmp # delete snmp snmpuser01

                                  The following example shows how to scope into the Domain Group domaingroup01, scope the SNMP policy, delete the SNMP user named snmpuser02, and commit the transaction:

                                  UCSC # connect policy-mgr
                                  UCSC(policy-mgr)# scope domain-group domaingroup01
