Configuring the Zoning Database

You can configure how the zoning database is applied to the switch and

exchanged with the fabric through the zoning configuration parameters. The

following zoning configuration parameters are available through the

Set Config Zoning command. Refer to Table13-19 for more information about the

zoning configuration parameters.

InteropAutoSave–This parameter enables or disables the saving of changes

to active zone set in the switch’s non-volatile memory.

DefaultZone–This parameter enables or disables communication among

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

DiscardInactive–This parameter enables or disables the discarding of all

zone sets except the active zone set.

If InteropAutoSave is False, you can revert zoning changes that have been

received from another switch through the activation of a zone set, or merging of

fabrics. Enter the Zoning Restore command to replace the volatile zoning

database with the contents of the non-volatile zoning database.

To restore the zoning configuration to its factory values, enter the ResetConfig or

Reset Factory commands. Notice however, these commands restore other

aspects of the switch configuration also.

To modify the zoning configuration, you must open an Admin session with the

Admin Start command. An Admin session prevents other accounts from making

changes at the same time through Telnet, Enterprise Fabric Suite 2007, or

another management application. You must also open a Config Edit session with

the Config Edit command and indicate which configuration you want to modify. If

you do not specify a configuration name, the active configuration is assumed.
