•The VSAN must have interop mode 4 enabled before you can specify the switch WWN for it.
•The switch WWN must be unique throughout the entire fabric.
•The configured switch WWN must have McData OUI [08:00:88].
Examples
This example shows how to assign a WWN to a VSAN:
switch(config)# wwn vsan 100 vsan-wwn 20:64:08:00:88:0d:5f:81
switch(config)# vsan database
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 100 suspend
switch(config-vsan-db)# exit
switch(config)# wwn vsan 100 vsan-wwn 20:64:08:00:88:0d:5f:81
