* Member: Alias is given a name, e.g. “Server_1”, “Disk_Array_2”. Physical Fabric port number or area number. Node World Wide Name - Obtained using nsshow or switchshow. Port World Wide Name – Obtained using nsshow or portloginshow. 64 characters maximum: A-Z, a-z, 0-9 and the “_” are allowed. Zone: Is given a name, e.g. “Red_Zone”. Contains two or more members and uses a “;” as a separator. The same member can be in multiple zones. Zone definition is persistent; it remains until deleted or changed by an administrator. Configuration: Is given a name, e.g. “Production_Cfg”. It constains one or more zones. Configuration may be disabled or one configuration may be in effect from any switch in the fabric. An administrator selects which configuration is currently enabled. A configuration is saved when enabled and then distributed to the remaining switches in the fabric where it is enabled and saved. * The following commands are used to create/modify the defined zone configuration: *create – Creates a new alias, zone or configuration *delete – Deletes the entire alias, zone or configuration *add – Adds a member to an existing alias, zone or configuration *remove – Removes one or more members from an existing alias, zone or configuration *show – Displays alias, zone and/or configuration information Web Tools and Fabric Manager provide a GUI that makes the administration of zoning easier. * Zone objects identified by “port number” or “area number” are specified as a pair of decimal numbers “d,area”, where “d” is the Domain ID of the switch and “area” is the area number on that switch. If the switch is replaced that is referenced by domain, port or domain, area, the new switch should be configured with the predecessor’s Domain ID. If a Domain ID is changed to a new value, all zones that referenced the predecessor’s domain number will need to be updated with the successor’s value. Worldwide Names are specified as a 16 digit hexadecimal number separated by colons, for
