About the Actions Menu

The options available in the Action Menu of the Zone Administration window are
described in

Table 56

.

Enable a Config Option

The Actions > Enable a Config option is used to enable a configuration that has
previously been created (see

Creating a Configuration

on page 243). A dialog

box appears; select the desired configuration from the drop-down menu.

Several configurations can reside on a switch at once and you can quickly
alternate between configurations. For instance, you may want to have one
configuration enabled during the business hours, and another enabled overnight.
Only one zone configuration can be enabled at a time.

Disable Zoning Option

The Actions > Disable Zoning option is used to disable the enabled
configuration. The Disable Config dialog box appears. When the Zoning feature is
disabled, the fabric is in non-zoning mode and all devices can freely access other
devices in the fabric.
