Merging broadcast domains

You can move all of the ports from one broadcast domain into an existing broadcast domain using the merge command. This operation reduces the steps required if you were to remove all ports from a broadcast domain and then add the ports to an existing broadcast domain.

Merge the ports from one broadcast domain into an existing broadcast domain: network port broadcast-domain merge -ipspace ipspace_name -broadcast-domain broadcast-domain_name -into-broadcast-domain broadcast-domain_name

  • ipspace_name is the name of the ipspace where the broadcast domains reside.
  • -broadcast-domain broadcast-domain_name is the name of the broadcast domain that will be merged.
  • -into-broadcast-domain broadcast-domain_name is the name of the broadcast domain that will receive additional ports.

The following example merges broadcast domain bd-data1 into broadcast domain bd-data2: network port -ipspace Default broadcast-domain bd-data1 into-broadcast-domain bd-data2
