Command History
Usage Guidelines You can use this command to select the principal switch, configure domain ID distribution, reconfigure
the fabric, and allocate FC IDs.
We recommend using the optimize fast-restart option on most fabrics, especially those with a large
number of logical ports (3200 or more), where a logical port is an instance of a physical port in a VSAN.
Examples The following examples show how to configure the Fibre Channel domain feature.
