Preferred Domain ID Use this field to set each director and switch in the fabric to a unique
Domain ID. Fibre Channel addresses in the director include this
Preferred Domain ID, which creates a unique identification for the
port in the fabric.
Set a Preferred Domain ID value in the range 1 through 31.
(The default value is 1.)
CAUTION
!
The Domain ID must be unique for each director/switch in a fabric.
If two directors/switches have the same Domain ID, the E_Ports
(and the fabric) become segmented.
