Chapter 16 Configuring Inter-VSAN Routing
Creating IVZs and IVZSs
Zones versus IVZs
Table 16-1
identifies the key differences between IVZs and Zones.
Automatic IVZ Creation
Figure 16-1
depicts an IVZ consisting of four members. To allow pwwn1 to communicate with pwwn2,
they must be in the same zone in VSAN 1, as well as in VSAN 2. If they are not in the same zone, then
the hard-zoning ACL entries will prohibit pwwn1 from communicating with pwwn2.
Figure 16-1
IVZ
A zone corresponding to each active IVZ is automatically created in each edge VSAN specified in the
active IVZ. All pWWNs in the IVZ are members of these zones in each VSAN.
The zones are created automatically by the IVR process when an IVZS is activated. They are not stored
in a full zone set database and are lost when the switch reboots or when a new zone set is activated. The
IVR feature monitors these events and adds the zones corresponding to the active IVZS configuration
when a new zone set is activated. Like zone sets, IVR zone sets are also activated non-disruptively.
If pwwn1 and pwwn2 are in an IVZ in the current as well as the new IVZS then activation of the new
IVZS does not cause any traffic disruption between them.

Key Differences between IVZs and Zones
IVZs
Zones
IVZ membership is specified using the VSAN and
pWWN combination.
Zone membership is specified using pWWN,
fabric WWN, sWWN, or the fabric ID.
Default zone policy is always deny (not
configurable).
Default zone policy is deny (configurable).
