About fcdomain Initiation
By default, the fcdomain feature is enabled on each switch. If you disable the fcdomain feature in a
switch, that switch can no longer participate with other switches in the fabric. The fcdomain
configuration is applied to runtime through a disruptive restart.

To disable or reenable fcdomains in a single VSAN or a range of VSANs, perform this task:
Configuring Fabric Names
To set the fabric name value for a disabled fcdomain, perform this task:
About Incoming RCFs
You can configure the rcf-reject option on a per-interface, per-VSAN basis. By default, the rcf-reject
