Changing the Switch Domain ID
Although domain IDs are assigned dynamically when a switch is enabled, you can request a specific ID
to resolve a domain ID conflict when you merge fabrics.
To change the switch domain ID
1. Launch the Switch Admin module as described on page 3-3.
2. Disable the switch, as described in “Enabling and Disabling a Switch” on page 3-7.
3. Click the Switch tab.
4. Type a new domain ID in the Domain ID field.
The domain ID is an integer between 1 and 239.
5. Click Apply.
6. Enable the switch, as described in “Enabling and Disabling a Switch” on page 3-7.
Viewing and Printing a Switch Report
The switch report includes the following information:
• A list of switches in the fabric
• Switch configuration parameters
• A list of ISLs and ports
• Name Server information
• Zoning information
• SFP serial ID information
To view or print a switch report
1. Launch the Switch Admin module as described on page 3-3.
2. Click the Switch tab.
3. Click View Report.
A switch report displays in a new window.
4. View or print the report using your browser.
Rebooting the Switch
When you reboot the switch, the reboot takes effect immediately. Ensure that there is no traffic or other
management on the switch, as traffic is interrupted during the reboot; however, frames are not dropped.
Be sure to save your changes before the reboot, as any changes that were not saved are lost.
