> # Assigning Features to CFS Regions

> ## Restrictions

> In the Feature by Region tab, when you try to reassign a feature on a switch to another region by clicking Create Row, an operation failed message is shown. The error message states that an entry already exists. However, moving a feature to a different region is a different task and it is described in the "Moving a Feature to a Different Region" topic.

> ## Detailed Steps

> To assign a feature to a region, follow these steps:

> 1. Expand Switches and select CFS from the Physical Attributes pane.

> The information pane displays the Global, IP Multicast, Feature by Region, and All Regions tabs.

> 2. Click the Feature by Region tab.

> This tab lists all the switches along with their corresponding Feature and RegionId.

> When a feature is assigned to a new region using the Feature by Region tab, a new row with the new region is created automatically in the table under the All Regions tab. Alternatively, you can create a region using the All Regions tab.

> 3. Click the Create Row button on the toolbar.
> 4. From the drop-down list, select a switch.

> The features running on the selected switch are listed in the Feature drop-down list.

> 5. Select a feature on that switch to associate a region.
> 6. From the RegionID list, select the region number to associate a region with the selected feature.
> 7. Click Create to complete assignment of a switch feature to the region.

> Upon successful assignment of feature, “Success” is displayed at the bottom of the dialog box.
