[rubberheart]

Hi, Team 

could someone tell me how to change the Node ID for the Spine or Leaf?

Once the Fabric have been establish , I cannot modify those IDs (All Node IDs are grey out)

Thanks a lot!!

Hey Daniel,

Once the Device is discovered with a particular node ID, the device will have to be decomissioned and then re-commissioned with the node ID you would like.  There is no way to change the node ID "on the fly".

If you decomission the device, choose the "remove from controller" option.  You will then be able to power-cycle the switch and it should show up as a new device in the Fabric Inventory.  At that point, you can give it the node ID you would like and it will join the fabric with that node ID.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Daniel,

How much would it generally take to reload to come back online, once i choose the option remove from controller.

Thanks
