Implementing Zoning
Zoning can be implemented and administered from any switch in the fabric. When a change in the
configuration is saved, enabled or disabled per the transactional model, it is automatically
distributed to all switches in the fabric. For that reason, Zoning requires that all switches in the
fabric have an active Zoning license. Zoning is a standard feature on the FC Switch 8B and FC
16B. Zoning is an optional feature on the FC Entry Switch 8B.
Zoning can be administered through either:
•
The telnet command interface - see the Fabric OS Reference Manual.
•
The Web Tools Web interface - see the Web Tools User's Guide, Zone Administration Interface
section.
Configuring Zoning
To implement Zoning, perform the following:
1.
Check for a unique domain ID
2.
Create alias (this step is optional)
3.
Define zone
4.
Define zone configuration
5.
Enable zone configuration
Each zone object defined — alias, zone, zone configuration — must have a unique name; that is, an
alias cannot have the same name as another alias, and it cannot have the same name as a zone or a
zone configuration.
Note:
1.
Check for a Unique Domain ID
Be sure the domain ID is set to a unique value for each switch by using the switchShow
command. Domain ID 8 is reserved for the HP-UX host. To change the domain ID, use the
configure command.
2.
Create Alias (optional)
An alias is a name assigned to a device or group of devices. By creating an alias you can assign a
familiar name to a device, or you can group multiple devices into a single name. This can simplify
cumbersome entries and it allows an intuitive naming structure such as using NT_Hosts to define
all NT hosts in the fabric.
An alias must be a unique alpha-numeric string beginning with an alpha character. The underscore
character ( _ ) is allowed and alias names are case-sensitive. For example, nt_hosts is not the
same name as NT_Hosts.
Aliases can greatly simplify the administrative process; however, they are not required to define
zones. Hardware zoning security is enforced with aliases.

Zoning User's Guide
During the configuration process below, changes should be saved periodically to ensure
that they are stored in flash memory and protected against loss.
