MAPS interoperability with other features

Virtual Fabrics

MAPS is a logical switch-specific feature. Different logical switches can have different MAPS
configurations for the needs of the specific logical switch.

When you enable MAPS on the Virtual Fabric-enabled switch, MAPS is enabled, with the same
active policy, on all Fabric Identifiers (FIDs).
