wwn 2 wwn Displays or sets the World Wide Name (WWN) of the switch. Synopsis wwn [-sn | name] Description Use this command to display or change the WWN associated with a switch and to display the switch serial number. All switches have a numeric address that is the unique Fibre Channel address used for communicating with the switch. Alternately, use switchShow to display the switch WWN. A WWN must have eight colon-separated fields, each consisting of one or two hexadecimal digits between 0 and ff. Spaces are not allowed. Changes made by this command require a switch reboot to take effect. You may defer rebooting the system. However, the switch must restart before any firmwareDownload or (for bladed systems) CP failover occurs; otherwise, the switch may behave in unexpected ways. Note This command should be used with caution. Features tied to the switch WWN, such as licenses, may no longer work after the WWN has been changed. The execution of this command is subject to Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place.Refer to chapter 1, "Understanding Admin Domain Restrictions" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for details.
