Managing trusted hosts

You can specify the hosts that are allowed to access a storage system. These hosts are considered trusted hosts of that storage system. You can also specify that all hosts are trusted or that none of the hosts are trusted. Setting trusted hosts to None prevents access to the hosts from System Manager. You can change this setting only from the CLI by using the trusted.hosts.
