Command History
Usage Guidelines This command is not applicable to virtual Fibre Channel interfaces.
FSPF tracks the state of links on all switches in the fabric, associates a cost with each link in its database,
and then chooses the path with a minimal cost. The cost associated with an interface can be changed
using the fspf cost command to implement the FSPF route selection.
Examples The following example configures the FSPF link cost on an FCIP interface:
switch(config)# interface fc 2/1
switch(config-if)# fspf cost 5000 vsan 1
Related Commands
