Switch A does not
have a defined
configuration.
Switch B has a
defined
configuration.
defined: none
effective: none
defined:cfg1
zone1: ali1; ali2
effective: cfg1
Switch A will absorb the
configuration from the
fabric, with cfg1 as the
effective cfg.
Switch A and Switch
B have the same
defined
configuration. Only
Switch B has an
enabled
configuration.

Clean merge, with cfg1
as the effective cfg.
Switch A and Switch
B have different
defined
configurations.
Neither has an
enabled zone
configuration.

Clean merge; the new
cfg will be a composite
of the two—
