Creating a zone alias
An alias is a logical group of port index numbers and WWNs. Specifying groups of ports or devices
as an alias makes zone configuration easier by enabling you to configure zones using an alias
rather than inputting a long string of individual members. You can specify members of an alias
using the following methods:
•
Identifying members by switch domain and port index (D,I) number pair.
•
Identifying members by device node and device port WWNs.
1. Select Configure > Zoning > Fabric.
The Zoning dialog box displays.
2. Click the Zone DB tab if that tab is not automatically displayed.
3. Select a fabric from the Zoning Scope list.
4. Select Alias from the Type list.
5. Click New Alias.

Refer to “Zoning naming conventions” on page 888 for rules about zone alias names.

(Press SHIFT or CTRL and click each member to select more than one member.)
