Activating an Admin Domain An Admin Domain can be in either an active or inactive state. When you create an Admin Domain, it is automatically in the active state. 1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin. 2. Switch to the AD255 context, if you are not already in that context. ad --select 255 3. Enter the ad --activate option. ad --activate ad_id The activate option prompts for confirmation. By default, after the Admin Domain is activated, the devices specified under that AD are not able to see each other until they are zoned together. 4. Enter the appropriate command based on whether you want to save or activate the Admin Domain definition: • To save the Admin Domain definition, enter ad --save. • To save the Admin Domain definition and directly apply the definition to the fabric, enter ad --apply.
