Interop Mode for Zoning

When a zone set is activated on an FC-SW-2 compliant switch, only the active zone set is propagated to all switches in the fabric. When a zone set is activated on a non-FC-SW-2 compliant switch, the active zone set and all inactive zone sets (the entire zoning database stored in permanent memory) are propagated to all switches in the fabric. Use the Standard option for FC-SW-2 compliant switches to propagate only the active zone set to all switches in the fabric. Use the Interop_1 parameter for non-FC-SW-2 compliant switches to propagate the active zone set and all inactive zone sets to all switches in the fabric.

NOTE: The Interop Mode setting must be the same on all switches in the fabric, otherwise the inter-switch links will not connect.

4.7.3.3

Legacy Port Address Format

Legacy Address Format should be enabled only to permit interoperation with certain older non-FC-SW-2 compliant switches. Enabling this setting under other circumstances will disable zoning that is defined by domain ID and port number. This Legacy Address Format option is available only when the Interop_1 setting is enabled on the Advanced Switch Properties dialog. Contact your authorized maintenance provider for assistance in using this feature. Refer to the QLogic Switch Interoperability Guide on the QLogic Web site for a complete discussion of configuring for operation with non-Qlogic switches.

NOTE: The Legacy Address Format setting must be the same on all switches in the fabric, otherwise the inter-switch links will not connect.
