Command History
Usage Guidelines To use this command, change to the VSAN database mode.
The interface range must be in ascending order and nonoverlapping. You can specify a range using a
hyphen and several interfaces using commas:
• The interface range format for a Fibre Channel interface range is
fcslot/port - port , fcslot/port , fcslot/port:
For example,
show int fc2/1 - 3 , fc2/4 , fc3/2
• The format for a SAN port channel is
san-port-channel portchannel-number.subinterface-number:
For example,
show int san-port-channel 5.1
There are four interop modes:
• Interop mode 1 — Standards based interop mode that requires all other vendors in the fabric to be
in interop mode.
• Interop mode 2 — Brocade native mode (Core PID 0).
• Interop mode 3 — Brocade native mode (Core PID 1).
• Interop mode 4 — McData native mode. Before you configure Interop mode 4 (or remove the
configuration), you must suspend the VSAN. You should unsuspend the VSAN only after you
configure a VSAN-dependent switch WWN with the McData OUI [08:00:88].
Examples The following example shows how to create multiple fabrics sharing the same physical infrastructure and
how to assign ports to VSANs:
switch(config)# vsan database
switch-config-vsan-db# vsan 2
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 2 name TechDoc
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 2 loadbalancing src-dst-id
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 2 loadbalancing src-dst-ox-id
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 2 suspend
switch(config-vsan-db)# no vsan 2 suspend
switch(config-vsan-db)# end
The following example shows how to suspend a VSAN and enable Interop mode 4:
switch(config)# vsan database
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 100 suspend
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 100 interop 4
switch(config-vsan-db)# exit
