Syntax Description

Command Modes IVR topology database configuration submode.
Command History
Usage Guidelines The following rules apply to configuring AFIDs to VSANs:
• The default AFID of a VSAN is 1.
• Each VSAN belongs to one and only one AFID.
• A switch can be a member of multiple AFIDs.
• AFIDs at a switch must not share any VSAN identifier (for example, a VSAN at a switch can belong
to only one AFID).
• A VSAN identifier can be reused in different AFIDs, without merging the VSANs, as long as those
AFIDs do not share a switch.
You can have up to 64 VSANs (or 128 VSANs for Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 2.1(1a) or later) in an
IVR topology. Specify the IVR topology using the following information:
• The switch WWNs of the IVR-enabled switches.
• A minimum of two VSANs to which the IVR-enabled switch belongs.
fabric-id Specifies the fabric ID for the IVR topology.
Note For Cisco MDS SAN-OS images prior to release 2.1(1a), the
fabric-id value is limited to 1. For Releases 2.1(1a) and later
images, the fabric-id range is 1 to 64.
switch-wwn swwn Configures the switch WWN in dotted hex format.
vsan-ranges vsan-id Configures up to five ranges of VSANs to be added to the database.
The range is 1 to 4093.
Release Modification
1.3(1) This command was introduced.
2.1(1a) Modified range for fabric-id.
