The Admin Domain window displays information about the Admin Domains that are defined in the
fabric. If you launch the Admin Domain window from AD255 (physical fabric), the window contains
information about the current content of all Admin Domains. If you launch the Admin Domain window
from any other Admin Domain, the window displays the current Admin Domain only.
To manage Admin Domains, you must be logged in with the role of Admin.
ATTENTION
Any changes you make in the Admin Domain window are held in a buffered environment and are not
saved to persistent storage until you explicitly save the changes . If you close the Admin Domain
window without saving your changes, your changes are lost. To save the buffered changes you make
to persistent storage in the Admin Domain window, refer to Saving local Admin Domain changes on
page 90 on page 70. When you are logged into AD0, if a physical fabric administrator modifies the
AD configuration from another session, the changes in the membership might not be visible to you.
When you launch the Admin Domain window and select the parent Admin Domains node in the tree
on the left pane, the Admin Domain window displays summary information about all of the Admin
Domains. You can also select a specific Admin Domain from the tree to display detailed information
about that Admin Domain. The detailed view displays summary information as well as information
about the online switch, port, and device members of the selected Admin Domain.
NOTE
The tree only displays launched switches and their ports. It also displays all the devices in the fabric.
Slot and port information of other switches is not displayed in the tree.
The Admin Domain window has the following buttons in a task bar at the top of the window:
• New allows you to create a new Admin Domain.
• Print allows you to print the current or effective configuration.
• Refresh allows you to refresh the information for the entire fabric or a specific Admin Domain.
• Apply allows you to apply a configuration.
• Save allows you to save a configuration.
• Clear allows you to clear the configuration.
You can right-click any of the table content in the Admin Domain window to access Export, Copy,
and Search options. The options are not available if the table does not have any content.
NOTE
You must accept the Brocade Certificate at the beginning of the login to Web Tools to enable the
functionality of Export and Copy.
• Click Export Row or Export Table to save the contents to a tab-delimited file.
• Click Copy Row or Copy Table to copy the contents in tab-delimited text format to a file.
• Click Search to search for a specific text string in the table.
The Switch Members dialog box displays.
