Usage Guidelines
Zones are assigned to zone sets, zone sets are then activated from one switch and propagate across the
fabric to all switches. Zones allow security by permitting and denying access between nodes (hosts and
storage). zone name commands are issued from the configuration mode. Configure a zone for a VSAN
from the config-zone submode.
Use the show wwn switch command to retrieve the sWWN. If you do not provide a sWWN, the software
automatically uses the local sWWN.
Broadcast frames are sent to all Nx ports.
If any NL port attached to an FL port shares a broadcast zone with the source of the
