About Contiguous Domain ID Assignments
By default, the contiguous domain assignment is disabled. When a subordinate switch requests the
principal switch for two or more domains and the domains are not contiguous, the following situations
can occur:
• If the contiguous domain assignment is enabled in the principal switch, the principal switch locates
contiguous domains and assigns them to the subordinate switches. If contiguous domains are not
available, the switch software rejects this request.
• If the contiguous domain assignment is disabled in the principal switch, the principal switch assigns
the available domains to the subordinate switch.
