Distributing ACL policies to other switches
This section explains how to manually distribute local ACL policy databases to other Fabric 5.2.x and
higher switches. The distribute command has the following dependencies:
•
All target switches must be running Fabric OS 5.2.x or higher.
•
All target switches must accept the database distribution (see
settings" on page 1 1 1).
•
The fabric must have a tolerant or no (absent) fabric-wide consistency policy (see
consistency policy
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.
Table 29
describes how the target switch database distribution settings affect the distribution:
