Working with EX_Ports

This command is used to set up secret keys for the DH-CHAP authentication.
The minimum length of a secret key is 8 characters and maximum 40 characters.
Setting up secret keys does not initiate DH-CHAP authentication. If switch is
configured to do DH-CHAP, it is performed whenever a port or a switch is enabled.
Warning: Please use a secure channel for setting secrets. Using an insecure
channel is not safe and may compromise secrets.
Following inputs should be specified for each entry.
1. WWN for which secret is being set up.
2. Peer secret: The secret of the peer that authenticates to peer.
3. Local secret: The local secret that authenticates peer.

Example Enabling encryption on port 1 of ‘myswitch’
There are two things to notice here— the first is that the initial attempt fails because the port is
currently enabled. The second is that the output from the second attempt shows encryption to be
enabled on the port, as shown by the portCfgShow command.
myswitch:admin> portcfgencrypt --enable 1
Please disable port to configure Encryption/Compression.
myswitch:admin> portdisable 1
myswitch:admin> portcfgencrypt --enable 1
myswitch:admin> portenable 1
myswitch:admin> portcfgshow 1
