Set Config zoning parameters

Parameter

Description

InteropAutoSave

Available only when the InteropMode parameter is Standard, this parameter
enables (True) or disables (False) the saving of changes to active zone set in
the switch’s permanent memory. See

InteropMode

” on page 161. The

default is True.

Disabling the Autosave parameter can be useful to prevent saving zoning
information when experimenting with different zoning schemes. However,
leaving the Autosave parameter disabled can disrupt device configurations
should a switch have to be reset. For this reason, the Autosave parameter
should be enabled in a production environment.

DefaultZone

Enables (True) or disables (False) communication among ports/devices that
are not defined in the active zone set or when there is no active zone set.
This parameter applies only when InteropMode is set to McDATA Fabric
Mode. The DefaultZone parameter is automatically distributed throughout
the fabric.

The default is False.
