Abstract

Technologies for fabric security include one or more managed network devices coupled to one or more computing nodes via high-speed fabric links. A managed network device enables a port and, while enabling the port, securely determines the node type of the link partner coupled to the port. If the link partner is a computing node, management access is not allowed at the port. The managed network device may allow management access at certain predefined ports, which may be connected to one of more management nodes. Management access may be allowed for additional ports in response to management messages received from the management nodes. The managed network device may check and verify data packet headers received from a compute node at each port. The managed network device may rate-limit management messages received from a compute node at each port. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
