2. Use the set pnnipeergroupid command to change the peer group ID of the switches in group A to
50:39:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:01:00:00:00. The three remaining switches with the default peer
group ID will comprise group B:
A1 # set pnnipeergroupid
NodeIndex(1) :
PeerGroupId(50:39:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00): 50:39:00:00:00:00:00:00:
00:00:01:00:00:00
