On page 363, in the section “QoS zones”, add the following paragraphs:
NOTE
QoS can be used for device pairs that exist within the same fabric only. QoS priority information is
not passed over EX_ or VEX_Ports and should not be used for devices in separate fabrics.
If a QoS zone name prefix is specified in an LSAN zone (a zone beginning with prefix “LSAN_”),
the QoS tag is ignored. Only the first prefix in a zone name is recognized. For example, a zone with
the name “LSAN_QOSH_zone1” is recognized as an LSAN zone and not a QoS zone.
On page 389, in the section “Zone definition and naming”, add the following paragraph:
The “LSAN_” prefix must appear at the beginning of the zone name. LSAN zones may not be
combined with QoS zones. See “QoS zones” on page 363 for more information about the naming
convention for QoS zones.
