These IDs are
required when using multimaster replication and each master must have a
-unique ID. If the URL is provided, this directive may be specified

+If the URL is provided, this directive may be specified
multiple times, providing a complete list of participating servers
and their IDs. The fully qualified hostname of each server should be
used in the supplied URLs. The IDs are used in the "replica id" field
