Zoning 6-15
Zoning Commands
Zoning is managed by logging into a Switch via Telnet. Any Fabric Switch
can be used to manage Zoning. A change made to the Zoning information on
the master Switch is replicated through all Switches in the Fabric.
This chapter contains information and examples on managing zones,
including:
■
Zone Alias Commands
■
Zone Configuration Commands
■
Zone Commands
■ Configuration Management Commands.
The Zoning commands are added to the shell admin account to manage zones,
zone aliases, and zone configurations. All commands other than the
Show
command return zero if successful and -1 on error.
All Add, Create, Delete, and Remove commands modify the defined
configuration. This has no effect on the effective configuration until a
cfgEnable
command is executed. As these commands are executed, the
parameter syntax is checked but the changes are not in force until the next
enable command is given. Table 6-1 summarizes the commands.
