Management, Non-Overlapping Zoning Configuration | Vixel 335

Vixel Model 335 Installation & Configuration Guide	CHAPTER 3 Management

Note: Ports 11 and 12 can only be in Zone 1.

Non-Overlapping Zoning Configuration

The non-overlapping zones feature enables you to assign each port on the switch to one of 12 available zones. Each zone is unique which allows for 6 separate zones to function on the same switch. With non-overlapping zoning enabled, each zone is totally independent and LIPs on one zone do not affect the other zones.

You can have simultaneous overlapping and non-overlapping zoning. Overlapping zoning operates in Zone 1 and non-overlapping zoning operates in Zones 2-12.

The non-overlapping zoning configuration shows the zone status, the port state for each zone, the number of active ports in each zone, and the port numbers that are in each zone.

To view zone configuration by zone, type noz.

The current non-overlapping zoning configuration, by zone, is displayed.

Non Overlapping Zone Configuration								By	Port
Port Number:		1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10	11	12
Zone Number:		1	1	1	1	1	2	2	2	2	2	1	1
Port	State:	B	B	B	B	B	I	U	B	B	B	B	B
Zone	State:	D	D	D	D	D	U	U	U	U	U	D	D

Note: Each port may only be in one non-overlapping zone.

Zone number: Possible values are 1–12.

Port State: Possible values are "B" (Bypassed), "I" (Inserted), "D" (Diagnostic Transmit), "E" (External Loopback), "U" (Unknown), and "?" (Access Error).

Zone State: Possible values are "U" (Up) and "D" (Down).

To place ports into non-overlapping zones:

1.Type noz to view the current non-overlapping zones configuration.

2.At the prompt, type noz z:p,p,p.. z:p p.. z.. (where z=zone number 1–12 and p=port number 1–12)

Ports on a zone may be separated by a comma or spaces.

Note: Unspecified ports are automatically placed into Zone 1.

Example: noz 2:5,6,7,8 3:9,10

Ports 5-8 are placed in Zone 2, ports 9-10 are placed in Zone 3, and ports 1-4 and 11-12 are placed into Zone 1.
