Advanced Switch Properties

The Advanced Switch Properties dialog enables you to set the timeout values, Interop Mode, and Legacy Address Format settings. The Advanced Switch Properties dialog is available for only the entry switch, because an in-band switch can not be taken offline. The switch will automatically be taken offline temporarily and will be restored to its original state after the changes are completed. To open the Advanced Switch Properties dialog, open the Switch menu and select Advanced Switch Properties. After making changes, click the OK button to put the new values into effect.

Use the Advanced Switch Properties dialog to change the following switch configuration parameters:

Interop Mode for Zoning

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.
