Setting the Domain ID
Perform the following steps to set the switch domain ID.
1.
Log in to the switch through Telnet using the admin account.
2.
Modify the domain ID if required.
The default domain ID is 1. If the switch is not powered on until after it is connected to the fabric and the default domain ID is
already in use, the domain ID for the new switch is automatically reset to a unique value. If the switch is connected to the fabric
after it has been powered on and the default domain ID is already in use, the fabric segments. To find the domain IDs that are
currently in use, enter the fabricShow command on another switch in the fabric.
Perform the following steps to modify the domain ID.
a)
Disable the switch by entering the switchDisable command.
b)
Enter the configure command. The command prompts display sequentially; enter a new value or press Enter to accept
each default value.
c)
Enter y after the Fabric param prompt.
Fabric param (yes, y, no, n): [no] y
d)
Enter a unique domain ID (such as the domain ID used by the previous switch, if still available).
Domain: (1..239) [1] 3
e)
Complete the remaining prompts or press Ctrl+D to accept the remaining settings without completing all the prompts.
f)
Re-enable the switch by entering the switchEnable command.
