Note: The controller alias “Controller A1_Bottom” has already been created and does not
need to be repeated.

This completes alias naming for the Yellow Zones. The next section configures the Brown
Zones.
Example: Zoning Brown Zone_Top and Brown Zone_Bottom
Zoning the Brown portion of this example is similar to zoning the Yellow portion, with a few
name and number changes. Table 23 shows the sample Brown Zone_Top and Brown
Zone_Bottom input form.
Figure 35 shows that the host in the Brown Zone is named “Host 4.” The zoning procedure
follows.
1. Record the domain IDs of switches Y and Z. In this example, they are both Domain ID 1.
Record this information in the Brown Zone_Top and Brown Zone_Bottom input form.
List the Brown Zone in two blocks, one for switch Y in Brown Zone_Top and one for
switch Z in Brown Zone_Bottom. See Table 23 for entries.
2. Record the ports that connect to the hosts and E ports.
Figure 35 shows that “Host 4” is the host name and that there are two connections from
Host 4 to the switches. Host 4 path 4_Y is connected to port 8 of switch Y; Host 4
path 4_Z is connected to port 8 of switch Z. The E-Port is located in port 1 on both
switches Y and Z.
3. List the controller connections for the top and bottom fabrics.
Figure 35 shows that the controller pair is listed as Controller Y1_top (top controller,
port 1) and Controller Y1_bottom (bottom controller, port 1). Switch Y port 4 connects to
Controller Y1_top in the top fabric. Switch Z connects to Controller Y1_bottom in the
bottom fabric.
4. Select the Telnet session from switch A.
5. Create the alias names in the zone.
The naming convention in the example refers to “Host 4_Y” as the host name and path for
the connections to port 8 of switch Y. The command to create this alias is:
aliCreate “Host 4_Y”, “1,8”
This command creates an alias named “Host 4_Y” with a switch domain of 1 and port
number 8.
Note: The controller alias “Controller Y1_Top” has already been created and does not need to
be repeated. Because E ports cannot be zoned, an alias is not needed for domain 1 port 1.
