Configuring Zones

65

Embedded Web Server User Guide

Note:

If merging zones will result in segmented E_Ports and the fabrics will not join,

you can join the fabrics by deactivating the active zone set on one of the fabrics (default

zone is enabled). This eliminates any conflicts because the fabrics will then join using

only the active zone set. After the fabrics join, you can make adjustments to zoning

configurations as you desire.

Configuring, Adding, or Deleting Zones

Perform this procedure to configure, change, add, or delete zones. A zone is a
group of devices that can access each other through port-to-port connections.
Devices in the same zone can recognize and communicate with each other;
devices in different zones cannot.

Caution:

If, in your business practices, zoning tasks are performed using both

the Command Line Interface (CLI) and EWS, you risk potential conflicts in the

configuration and functionality could be lost.

To configure zones:

1. Choose Configure from the navigation panel.

2. At the Configure page, choose the Zoning tab and the Zones tab. The Zones

tab view displays as shown in

Figure 20
