Configuring fabric-wide parameters for a logical fabric
When you create a logical switch, you must assign it to a fabric and configure fabric-wide
parameters. All the switches in a fabric must have the same fabric-wide settings.
Instead of configuring these settings separately on each logical switch, you can create a logical
fabric template, which defines the fabric-wide settings for a logical fabric. Then, when you create
logical switches for that fabric, these fabric-wide settings are used automatically and you do not
need to re-enter them.
Creating a logical fabric template does not create a logical fabric. A logical fabric is created only
when you assign logical switches to a fabric ID (FID).
