0 means no switch domain configured.

What is cvsDomain?

This read-write value identifies the virtual switch domain a chassis belongs to, where zero means no domain has been configured yet. An admin cares because two switches must share the same non-zero domain number to be able to form a single virtual switch together, making this the first thing to check when a pairing isn't forming. For example, two chassis intended to form a virtual switch pair but configured with different domain values would fail to combine into a single logical switch.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.388.1.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-VIRTUAL-SWITCH-MIB::cvsDomain

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.388.1.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-VIRTUAL-SWITCH-MIB::cvsDomain.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.388.1.1.1.1 i <value>
