Customizing the Switch Name
2
To remove a licensed feature
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2. Enter the licenseShow command to display the active licenses.
3. Remove the license key using the licenseRemove command.
The license key is case sensitive and must be entered exactly as given. The quotation marks
are optional. After removing a license key, the optionally licensed feature is disabled when the
switch is rebooted or when a switch disable or enable is performed.
4. Enter the licenseShow command to verify that the license is disabled.
After a reboot (or switchDisable and switchEnable):
If there are no license keys, licenseShow displays “No licenses.”
Customizing the Switch Name
Switches can be identified by IP address, Domain ID, World Wide Name (WWN), or by customized
switch names that are unique and meaningful.
Version 4.0.0 (and later) Switch names can be from 1 to 15 characters long, must begin with a letter, and
can contain letters, numbers, or the underscore character. It is not necessary to use quotation marks.
The default names are:
• SilkWorm 3016: brocadessm
• SilkWorm 200E, 3250, 3850, 3900, 4012, and 4100 switches: swd77
• SilkWorm 12000: varies depending on number of logical switches
The two logical switches have different default names. The name “swd77” is used for the logical
switch containing the port blades in slots 1 through 4, and “swd76” is used for the logical switch
containing the port blades in slots 7 through 10.
