Dell Brocade G620 Brocade 8.0.1 Fabric OS Command Reference - Page 137

chassisDistribute Notes This command distributes the IP Filter database only. To distribute other security databases, use the distribute command. The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric restrictions that may be in place. Refer to "Using Fabric OS Commands" and "Command Availability" for details. Operands This command has the following operands: -db ipfilter Specifies the policy database to be distributed with this command. The only accepted value for -db is ipfilter. The database name is case insensitive. The legacy notation ("IPFILTER") still works but is not necessary. The following operands are mutually exclusive: -fid target_FID Specifies the target logical switch for the distribution. The logical switch is identified by its fabric ID (FID). When a FID is specified, the database is distributed to all chassis that are connected to the specified logical switch (FID) and are configured to accept the distribution. This operand is required and valid only when the originating switch is in Virtual Fabric mode. -domain target_domain_list Specifies a list of target switch domain IDs that should receive the database. The list must be enclosed in double quotation marks; members must be separated by a semicolon. A wildcard (*) may be specified to include all switches in the fabric that support the distribute feature. This operand is required and valid only when Virtual Fabrics are disabled. -force Distributes the database without confirmation. Examples To distribute the IP Filter policies to all chassis that are connected through the logical fabric 128 and support the distribute feature: switch:admin> chassisDistribute -db ipfilter -fid 128 FID DOMAIN CHASSISWWN CHASSISNAME SUPPORTED_DIST 128 3 10:00:00:05:1e:38:ac:0e DCX_93 yes NON-VF 4 10:00:00:05:1e:39:bd:0f Brocade300 yes 128 98 10:00:00:05:1e:41:22:9f Brocade6510 no chassisDistribute will distribute the database(s) to \ above topology.
