Table 13-19. Zoning Configuration Parameters

Parameter

Description

 

 

InteropAutoSave

Enables (True) or disables (False) the saving of changes to active

 

zone set in the switch’s non-volatile zoning database.The default

 

is True.

 

Disabling the Autosave parameter can be useful to prevent the

 

propagation of zoning information when experimenting with differ-

 

ent zoning schemes. However, leaving the InteropAutoSave

 

parameter disabled can disrupt device configurations should a

 

switch have to be reset. For this reason, the InteropAutoSave

 

parameter should be enabled in a production environment.

DefaultZone

Enables (True) or disables (False) communication among

 

ports/devices that are not defined in the active zone set. The

 

default is True.

DiscardInactive

Enables (True) or disables (False) the discarding of all inactive

 

zone sets from that zoning database. Inactive zone sets are all

 

zone sets except the active zone set. The default is False.
