A default zone consists of all devices that have not been configured as members of
a zone in a currently-active zone set. When no zone set is active, then all devices
are considered to be in the default zone. If a zone set is active, then all connected
devices that are not included in at least one of the zones in the active zone set are
included in the default zone.
Enabling the default zone allows any device in the default zone to see any other
device in the default zone. If the default zone is disabled and no zone set is active,
then devices connected to the product cannot communicate.
Note: Default Zoning is not supported in Open Fabric Mode.
