chassisDistribute chassisDistribute Distributes IP filter policies. Synopsis chassisdistribute -db ipfilter -fid target_FID [-force] chassisdistribute -db ipfilter -domain target_domain_list [-force] Description Use this command to manually distribute the IP Filter policy database. The behavior of this command depends on whether Virtual Fabrics are enabled or disabled. • If Virtual Fabrics are enabled on the originating switch, this command distributes the IP filter policy database to all chassis that are connected through the specified logical switch (FID). If the target chassis has Virtual Fabrics enabled, the IP filter policy database is distributed to all logical switches configured on the target. If Virtual Fabrics are not enabled on the target, the IP filter policy database is distributed to the default logical switch of the target. • If Virtual fabrics are disabled on the originating switch, the IP filter policy database is distributed to a list of target switches specified by their Domain IDs. If a target domain has Virtual Fabrics enabled, the IP filter policy database is distributed to all logical switches on the target domain. If Virtual Fabrics are not enabled on the target domain, the IP filter policy database is distributed to the default logical switch of the target domain. This command distributes the entire IP Filter database and overwrites any existing IP Filter policies on the receiving switches. The chassisDistribute command does not enforce FCS policy. The target chassis or switches must be capable of accepting the distribution. The distribution is aborted if one of the connected chassis or domains is configured to reject the distribution. Use the fddCfg command to configure the fabric-wide policies that control distribution behavior. When upgrading from pre-7.2.0 to 7.2.0 or later versions, the RPC port rules will be removed from the IP Filter policy database. The command output includes the following information: FID Indicates whether Virtual Fabrics are enabled or not on the domain that receives the distribution. If Virtual Fabrics are enabled, the FID is displayed, and all logical switches which are part of the chassis are targeted to receive the distribution. DOMAIN Displays the Domain ID of the originating switch. CHASSISWWN Displays the WWN of the originating or receiving chassis. Displays the originating switch WWN in switches running Fabric OS versions that do not support the chassis WWN feature. CHASSISNAME Displays the name of the chassis. SUPPORTED_DIST Displays yes if the distribution is supported on the receiving chassis. Displays no if the distribution is not supported. 112 Brocade Fabric OS Command Reference 53-1004112-02
