Abstract
Described in detail herein are systems and methods for managing connections in a data storage system. For example, the systems and methods may be used to manage connections between two or more computing devices for purposes of performing storage operations on the data of one of the computing devices. The data storage system includes at least two computing devices. A first computing device includes an unauthorized connection data structure and a connection manager component. The connection manager component receives a connection request from a second computing device. If the second computing device is not identified on the unauthorized connection data structure, the connection manager component can request that an authentication manager authenticate the second computing device and/or determine whether the second computing device is properly authorized. If so, the connection manager component can allow the second computing device to connect to the first computing device.
