Distributing ACL policies to other switches
This section explains how to manually distribute local ACL policy databases to Fabric 5.2.0 and later
switches. The distribute command has the following dependencies:
• All target switches must be running Fabric OS 5.2.0 or later.
• All target switches must accept the database distribution (see ”Configuring the database distribution
settings” on page 130).
• The fabric must have a tolerant or no (absent) fabric-wide consistency policy (see ”Setting the
consistency policy fabric-wide” on page 132).
If the fabric-wide consistency policy for a database is strict, the database cannot be manually
distributed. When you set a strict fabric-wide consistency policy for a database, the distribution
mechanism is automatically invoked whenever the database changes.
• The local distribution setting must be accepted. To be able to initiate the distribute command, set
the local distribution to accept.
localreject
Refuse the databases distributed from other switches. Cannot distribute local
database, manually or automatically, to other switches.
database_id
A semicolon-separated list of the local databases to be distributed; see
Table 34 on page 130 for a list of identifiers.
localaccept
Default setting. Allows local database to be overwritten with databases
received from other switches. Allows local database to be manually or
automatically distributed to other switches.
database_id
A semicolon-separated list of the local databases to be distributed; see
