Security Group File Attributes

Security Group File Attributes

The remote responder and local initiator negotiate security attributes. The responder
fully supports some security attributes while only partially supporting others. If a
partially supported attribute is referenced, the Compaq responder indicates that no value
is available. You cannot change a partially supported attribute. Table 4-12 shows
Compaq support for security attributes.

In accordance with ISO 8571-2, clause 12.16, the Compaq responder supports only a single action list for the

access-control attribute.

element consisting of an action-list field and, optionally, concurrency-access, identity,
passwords, and location fields. The access-control attribute defines the conditions under
