DESCRIPTION Use this command to display logical fabric configuration information, to determine the status of logical
interswitch links (LISLs), to enable LISLs between logical switches, and to display information about the
XISLs and LISLs associated with each XISL.
A logical switch is a partition created on a physical switch that shares the physical resources of the base
fabric while functioning as an independent entity in a "virtual" logical fabric. The logical fabric sits on top
of a base physical fabric and ties otherwise disconnected logical switches together to share the same
connectivity and physical resources. At the same time, the logical fabric provides protocol and
management isolation, and each logical fabric is independently scalable.
The display options provided with this command show the logical fabric configuration for a given logical
switch context or for a chassis context. Each logical switch displays only the user ports that are
configured to be part of that switch instance. The switch context is defined by the fabric ID. The default
context is the base logical switch that you are placed in upon login. The default logical switch context is
defined by the fabric ID 128. To change the context, use the setContext command.
When issued with the -cfg option, this command displays the following information:
Chassis
Numeric identifier for the chassis.
Chassis WWN
Chassis world wide name.
Base switch Domain
The domain ID of the base switch.
For each logical switch, the following information is displayed:
Logical Switch
Numeric identifier for the logical switch within the chassis.
Base switch
Yes or No. This field indicates whether or not this logical switch is the base switch.
Fabric Id
The logical switch fabric ID (FID).
State
The state of the logical switch: Online or Offline.
Switch WWN
The logical switch world wide name.
When issued with the -lisl option, the command displays the following information:
FID
Fabric ID of the logical switch.
