Configuring Fabric Binding
The fabric binding feature enables you to configure whether switches can merge
with a selected fabric. This provides security from accidental fabric merges and
potential fabric disruption when fabrics become segmented because they cannot
merge.
Note:
You cannot disable Fabric Binding if Enterprise Fabric Mode is enabled.
However, if Enterprise Fabric Mode is disabled, you can disable Fabric Binding.
Enabling Fabric Binding
Fabric Binding is enabled through the Fabric Binding dialog box. After you have
enabled Fabric Binding, use the Fabric Membership List to add switches that
you want to allow into the fabric.
1. Choose Configure > Fabric Binding. The Fabric Binding dialog box
displays, as shown in
Figure 49
.

2. Click the Enable/Disable checkbox for fabrics for which you want to
configure fabric binding in the Fabric List table. If SANtegrity Binding is not
installed, a message box displays, as shown in
Figure 50
