Syntax Description
Command Default By default, the switch sends RLIR frames to one of the hosts in the VSAN with the register function set
to “conditionally receive” if no hosts have the register function set to “always receive.
Command Modes Configuration mode
Command History
Usage Guidelines The switch sends RLIR frames to the preferred host only if it meets the following conditions:
No host in the VSAN is registered for RLIR with the registration function set to “always receive.
If one or more hosts in the VSAN are registered as “always receive,” then RLIR sends only to these
hosts and not to the configured preferred host.
The preferred host is registered with the registration function set to “conditionally receive.” If all
registered hosts have the registration function set to “conditionally receive,” then the preferred host
receives the RLIR frames.
You can specify only one RLIR preferred host per VSAN.
Examples The following example specifies FC ID 0x654321 as the RLIR preferred host for VSAN 2:
switch(config)# rlir preferred-cond fcid 0x654321 vsan 2
The following example removes FC ID 0x654321 as the RLIR preferred host for VSAN 2:
switch(config)# no rlir preferred-cond fcid 0x654321 vsan 2
fcid fc-id Specifies the FC ID. The format is 0xhhhhhh.
vsan vsan-id Specifies a VSAN ID. The range is 1 to 4093.
