Table 4 Configured priority and running priority mappings

Configured priority Running priority

≤ 2

Principal switch—Same as the configured priority.

Non-principal switch—3.

> 2

Principal switch—2.

Non-principal switch—Same as the configured priority.

To set the switch priority:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

2.

Enter VSAN view.

vsan vsan-id

Configure a priority
value for the switch.

priority value

By default, the priority value of a
switch is 128.

Configuring the allowed domain ID list

Configuring the allowed domain ID list has an effect on switches as follows:

Principal switch—The principal switch can only assign domains IDs within the allowed domain ID
list. If the allowed domain ID list configured does not include any of the already assigned domain

IDs or manually configured domain IDs, the allowed domain ID list configuration will fail.

Non-principal switch—The manually configured domain ID must be within the allowed domain ID
list. Otherwise, the allowed domain ID list configuration will fail. The principal switch must assign
the switch a domain ID within the allowed domain ID list. Otherwise, the switch refuses the assigned

domain ID and isolates its interface connected to the principal switch. If the runtime domain ID for

a switch is beyond the new allowed ID list, the allowed domain ID list configuration will also fail.

H3C recommends that you specify the same allowed domain ID list for the member switches of a VSAN.
To configure the allowed domain IDs for a switch:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

N/A

2.

Enter VSAN view.

vsan vsan-id

3.

Configure the allowed

domain IDs for the switch.

allowed-domain-id
domain-id-list

By default, the allowed domain IDs are 1
to 239.

Configuring a domain ID for a switch

In different scenarios, the configured domain ID has different meanings.

In a statically built fabric, the configured domain ID is the actual domain ID of the switch.

In a dynamically built fabric, the configured domain ID is desired by the switch but might not be the
actual domain ID.
