After you create the logical switch, you assign ports to it, as described in
on page 290.
Executing a command in a different logical switch context
If you are in the context of a logical switch, you can execute a command for a different logical switch.
You can also execute a command for all of the logical switches in a chassis.
The command is not executed on those logical switches for which you do not have permission.
1. Connect to the physical chassis and log in using an account with the chassis-role permission.
2. Enter one of the following commands:
• To execute a command in a different logical switch context:
fosexec --fid fabricID-cmd "command"
• To execute a command on all logical switches:
fosexec --fid all -cmd "command"
