Changing the RBridge ID
3
The enabled or disabled state of autoconfiguration does not affect any static IPv6 addresses that
may have been configured. Stateless IPv6 autoconfiguration and static IPv6 addresses can coexist.
Setting stateless IPv6 autoconfiguration
To configure stateless IPv6 autoconfiguration, complete the following steps.
1. Issue the configure terminal command to enter global configuration mode.
2. Take the appropriate action based on whether you want to enable or disable IPv6
autoconfiguration:
• Enter the ipv6 address autoconfig command to enable IPv6 autoconfiguration for all
managed entities on the target platform.
• Enter the no ipv6 address autoconfig command to disable IPv6 autoconfiguration for all
managed entities on the target platform.
Changing the RBridge ID
If you are going to have more than one switch in a fabric, each switch must have a unique RBridge
ID. The default RBridge ID for any Brocade VDX 6740 is 1. Use the vcs rbridge-id [rbridge-id]
command to change the default RBridge ID. You should be in privileged EXEC mode to run the
command. If you have made any other configuration changes you want to persist, be sure to save
your running configuration to the startup configuration before running the vcs rbridge-id command
as this command reboots the switch.
Enter the vcs rbridge-id [rbridge-id] command.
switch# vcs rbridge-id 2
This operation will change the configuration to default and reboot the switch.
Do you want to continue? [y/n]:y
When the confirmation question appears, answer Y.
The reply to the command will include a line about the setting of the RBridge ID.
Successfully set rbridge-id.
Changing the VCS ID
If you are going to have more than one VCS fabric, each fabric must have a unique VCS ID. The
default VCS ID for any VCS fabric is 1. Use the vcs vcs-id [ID] command to change the default VCS
ID. You should be in privileged EXEC mode to run the command. If you have made any other
configuration changes you want to persist, be sure to save your running configuration to the startup
configuration before running the vcs vcs-id command as this command reboots the switch.
Enter the vcs vcs-id [ID] command.
switch# vcs vcs-id 2
This operation will change the configuration to default and reboot the switch.
Do you want to continue? [y/n]:y
When the confirmation question appears, answer Y.
