Fabric Binding Activation

The fabric binding feature maintains a configuration database (config-database) and an active database.
The config-database is a read-write database that collects the configurations you perform. These
configurations are only enforced upon activation. This activation overwrites the active database with the
contents of the config- database. The active database is read-only and is the database that checks each
switch that attempts to log in.
