Manage authentication providers in an access zone

You modify an access zone to add and remove authentication providers. When you add an authentication provider, it must belong to the same groupnet referenced by the access zone. When you remove an authentication provider from an access zone, the provider is not removed from the system and remains available for future use.

1. To add an authentication provider, run the isi zone zones modify command with the --add-auth-providers option.
   You must specify the name of the authentication provider in the following format: <provider-type>:<provider-name>.

   The following command adds a file authentication provider named HR-Users to the zone3 access zone:

   isi zone zones modify zone3 --add-auth-providers=file:hr-users

2. To remove an authentication provider, run the isi zone zones modify command with the --remove-auth-providers option.
   You must specify the name of the authentication provider in the following format: <provider-type>:<provider-name>.
   The following command removes the file authentication provider named HR-Users from the zone3 access zone:

   isi zone zones modify zone3 --remove-auth-providers=file:hr-users

   The following command removes all authentication providers from the zone3 access zone:

   isi zone zones modify zone3 --clear-auth-providers
