CFS Distribution of Allowed Domain ID Lists

</h1>
<a name="wp1542851"> </a><p class="pBody">
You can enable the distribution of the allowed domain ID lists configuration information to all Cisco 
MDS switches in the fabric using the Cisco Fabric Services (CFS) infrastructure. This feature allows you 
to synchronize the configuration across the fabric from the console of a single MDS switch. Since the 
same configuration is distributed to the entire VSAN, you avoid possible misconfiguration and the 
likelihood that two switches in the same VSAN have configured incompatible allowed domains.

</p>
<a name="wp1542852"> </a><p class="pBody">
Use CFS to distribute the allowed domain ID list to ensure consistency in the allowed domain ID lists 
on all switches in the VSAN.

</p>
<a name="wp1542853"> </a><p class="pBodyAutonumNoRule">
<strong>Note	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong> We recommend configuring the allow domain ID list and committing it on the principle switch.
