switch(config)# fcid-allocation area
company-id value
switch(config)# no fcid-allocation area

Verifying the Company ID Configuration

You can view the configured company IDs by entering the show fcid-allocation area command. Default
entries are listed first and the user-added entries are listed next. Entries are listed even if they were part
of the default list and you later removed them.
The following example displays the list of default and configured company IDs:
switch# show fcid-allocation area
FCID area allocation company id info:
Total company ids: 7
+ - Additional user configured company ids.
* - Explicitly deleted company ids from default list.
You can implicitly derive the default entries shipped with a specific release by combining the list of
Company IDs displayed without any identification with the list of deleted entries.

The list of company IDs is used only when the fcinterop FC ID allocation scheme is in auto mode.
By default, the interop FC ID allocation is set to auto, unless changed.
We recommend that you set the fcinterop FC ID allocation scheme to auto and use the company
ID list and persistent FC ID configuration to manipulate the FC ID device allocation.
Use the fcinterop FCID allocation auto command to change the FC ID allocation and the show
running-config command to view the currently allocated mode.
When you enter a write erase, the list inherits the default list of company IDs shipped with a
relevant release.
