Abstract
A host port is enabled for security. In response to a determination by the host port that authentication or security association negotiation with a storage port cannot be completed successfully, the host port determines whether an audit mode indicator has been enabled in a login response from the storage port. The host port preserves input/output (I/O) access to the storage port based on determining whether the audit mode indicator has been enabled in the login response from the storage port.
