Command History
Usage Guidelines Zones are named groups of ports or devices that can communicate with each other. A zone member can
be a port or a device associated with a specific WWPN, or an alias. An alias is a named set of ports or
devices that are grouped together for convenience. You can add a WWPN or an alias to one or more
zones.
Zone members can only communicate with other members in the same zone; however, a port or device
can be a member of multiple zones.
Caution If the storage router is connected to the Fibre Channel (FC) switched fabric, all zoning changes
(including adding a member to a zone) are immediately propagated to other SN 5428-2 Storage Routers
and switches in the fabric.
See Chapter 5, “Configuring Fibre Channel Interfaces,” for more information about fabric zones.
Examples The following example adds the aliases testgroup1 and testgroup2 and the WWPN 220145ab32ca7890
to the zone named labgroup3:
[SN5428-2A]# zone labzone3 member fcalias testgroup1
[SN5428-2A]# zone labzone3 member fcalias testgroup2
[SN5428-2A]# zone labzone3 member wwpn 2201:45ab:32ca:7890
name The name of the zone to which the member is being added.
fcalias alias-name Make the specified alias a member of the named zone.
wwpn
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Make the specified WWPN a member of the named zone.
Note WWPN address notation is represented by 16 hex digits. The digits
may be separated by colons. When entering WWPN addresses,
colons can be omitted or placed anywhere in the address notation as
long as they do not leave one character without a partner character.
