VXSS_NETWORK option for NetBackup servers
This option identifies whether a specific network or remote system must or must not use NetBackup product authentication and authorization with the local system.
If a media server or client does not define a NetBackup product authentication and authorization network, it uses the NetBackup product authentication and authorization networks of its master server.

Example |
USE_VXSS = AUTOMATIC VXSS_NETWORK = fred.mycompany.com VXSS_NETWORK = 10.0.0.37 REQUIRED VXSS_NETWORK = 10.0.0. PROHIBITED VXSS_NETWORK = .theircompany.com VXSS_NETWORK = wilma.theircompany.com PROHIBITED VXSS_NETWORK = barney.mycompany.com PROHIBITED In the example, NetBackup product authentication and authorization is required for connections between the local system and the system with host fred.mycompany.com. NetBackup product authentication and authorization is required for connections between the local system and the system with IP address 10.0.0.37. NetBackup product authentication and authorization is prohibited for connections between the local system and systems in the 10.0.0 network except for 10.0.0.37. NetBackup product authentication and authorization is required for connections between the local system and systems within the theircompany.com Internet domain. NetBackup product authentication and authorization is required for connections between the local system and the system with host name wilma.theircompany.com despite the PROHIBITED option for wilma.theircompany.com. The REQUIRED option for .theircompany.com takes precedence. NetBackup product authentication and authorization is prohibited for connections between the local system and the system with host name barney.mycompany.com |
