Registering Host User Information
On a host group that performs authentication of hosts, register user information for all hosts that you allow
to connect. This section explains how to register user information for a host in a host group.
To register user information for a host in a host group:
1. Make sure that Remote Web Console is in Modify mode.
2. Start LUN Manager and display the Authentication window ( Figure 14 on page 31).
3. In the Port tree, select a port or host group on which you want to register user information
for a host.
The user information for hosts currently registered on the selected port or host group appears
in the Authentication Information (Host) list.
You can register user information for a host even if the port status is disable
. In this case,
however, the registered user information is ignored.
4. Right-click any point in the Authentication Information (Host) list.
5. Select Add New User Information from the pop-up menu.
The Add New User Information (Host) dialog box ( Figure 26 on page 51) appears. In this dialog
box, specify the following user information for the host to which you want to connect.

drop-down list includes the group names of all host bus adapters physically connected to the
