Fabric-Wide Consistency Policy configuration

Fabric-Wide Consistency Policy (FWCP) configures the Fabric Wide Consistency behavior of
distributable ACL policies. The policy ensures that the switches in the fabric enforce the same
policies. Set a strict or tolerant fabric-wide consistency policy for each ACL policy type (SCC, DCC,
FCS) to automatically distribute that database when a policy change is activated. If a fabric-wide
consistency policy is not set, then the policies are managed on a per switch basis.
To set the fabric-wide consistency policy for an SCC, DCC or FCS policy, perform the following steps.
1. Open the Switch Administration window as described in
