Adding an Admin Domain or Virtual Fabric list

If your network uses Admin Domains, you can specify a list of Admin Domain numbers to which the
user has access.

Use the brcdAdVfData attribute to map a role to a Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain. To perform this
operation, you must modify the schema to include the definition of the brcdAdVfData attribute and
the definition of a user class that can use this attribute. You can then add this attribute to user
entries in the LDAP directory.

1. In a schema file, assign the brcdAdVfData attribute to a user class.

The following sample schema file defines a new objectClass named “user” with optional
attributes “brcdAdVfData” and “description”.

#New attr brcdAdVfData
attributetype ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.8412.100
NAME ( 'brcdAdVfData' )
