Configuring Access Control host properties for the master and media server

To configure the access control host properties for the master server or media server, expand NetBackup Management > Host Properties > Master Servers or Media Servers > server name > Access Control.

Set NetBackup Product Authentication and Authorization to either Required or Automatic. A setting of Automatic takes into account that there may be hosts within the configuration that are not yet configured for NBAC. The server attempts to negotiate the most secure connection possible when it communicates to other NetBackup systems. The Automatic setting should be used until all of the clients and servers are configured for NBAC.

When Automatic is selected, you can specify computers or the domains required to use NetBackup Product Authentication and Authorization. Otherwise, you can specify the computers that are prohibited from using the NetBackup Product Authentication and Authorization.
