FSPF Global Configuration

By default, FSPF is enabled on switches in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family. 

</p>
<a name="wp1073097"> </a><p class="pBody">
Some FSPF features can be globally configured in each VSAN. By configuring a feature for the entire 
VSAN, you do not have to specify the VSAN number for every command. This global configuration 
feature also reduces the chance of typing errors or other minor configuration errors.

</p>
<a name="wp1073098"> </a><p class="pBodyAutonumNoRule">
<strong>Note	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong> FSPF is enabled by default. Generally, you do not need to configure these advanced features.

<p>The default for the backbone region is 0 (zero). You do not need to change this setting unless your region 
is different from the default. If you are operating with other vendors using the backbone region, you can 
change this default to be compatible with those settings.
