Since Insistent Domain ID Mode is enabled, please ensure that switches in
fabric do not have duplicate domain IDs configured, otherwise this may
cause switch to segment, if Insistent domain ID is not obtained when fabric
re-configures.

Date and Time Setting
The Brocade 6510 maintains the current date and time inside a battery-
backed real-time clock (RTC) circuit. Date and time are used for logging
events. Switch operation does not depend on the date and time; a
Brocade 6510 with an incorrect date and time value still functions properly.
However, because the date and time are used for logging, error
detection, and troubleshooting, you should set them correctly.
Time Zone, Date and Clock Server can be configured on all Brocade
switches.
