Traffic Isolation Zoning over FC routers

FIGURE 40
Traffic Isolation Zoning over FCR
In addition to setting up TI zones, you must also ensure that the devices are in an LSAN zone so
that they can communicate with each other.
If failover is enabled and the TI path is not available, an alternate path is used. If failover is disabled
and the TI path is not available, then devices are not imported.
NOTE
For TI over FCR, all switches in the backbone fabric and in the edge fabrics must be running
Fabric OS v6.1.0 or later.
TI within an edge fabric
A TI zone within an edge fabric is used to route traffic between a real device and a proxy device
through a particular EX_Port. For example, in
Figure 41 , you can set up a TI zone to ensure that
traffic between Host 1 and the proxy target is routed through EX_Port 9.
