Manually Configuring the IVR Topology

You can have up to 64 VSANs (or 128 VSANs as of Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 2.1(1a)) in an IVR

topology. Specify the IVR topology using the following information:

The use of a single AFID does not allow for VSANs that are logically and physically separate but have

the same VSAN number in an IVR topology.

You can only configure a maximum of 128 IVR-enabled switches and 64 distinct VSANs (or 128 distinct

VSANs as of Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 2.1(1a)) in an IVR topology (see the

Guidelines" section on page

Use the show wwn switch command to obtain the switch WWNs of the IVR-enabled switches.

The switch WWNs of the IVR-enabled switches.

A minimum of two VSANs to which the IVR-enabled switch belongs.

The autonomous fabric ID (AFID), which distinguishes two VSANs that are logically and physically

separate, but have the same VSAN number. Cisco MDS SAN-OS Releases 2.0(2b) supports only one

default AFID (AFID 1) and thus does not support non-unique VSAN IDs in the network. As of Cisco

MDS SAN-OS Release 2.1(1a), you can specify up to 64 AFIDs. See

If two VSANs in an IVR topology have the same VSAN ID and different AFIDs, they count as

two VSANs for the 128-VSAN limit for IVR.
