Description
Use this command to modify or display the WWN of a switch. All switches have a
numeric address that is the unique Fibre Channel address used for communicating
with the switch. The WWN is shown in the output of the switchShow
command.
This command with no parameters displays the current WWN value.
This command with a parameter sets the switch's WWN to the new value. WWN
names must have eight colon separated fields each consisting of 1 or 2
hexadecimal digits between 0 and off, with no spaces.
After the world wide name is changed, the user is prompted to reboot the switch.
The name will not take effect until the switch restarts.
Note: When security is enabled, this command can only be issued from the Primary
FCS switch. See “Security Commands” on page 941.
