request and another device does not respond to the request:

Checking for zoning problems

1. Enter the cfgActvShow command to determine if zoning is enabled.

• If zoning is enabled, it is possible that the problem is being caused by zoning enforcement

(for example, two devices in different zones cannot detect each other).

• If zoning is disabled, check the default zone mode by entering the defZone --show

command. If it is no access, change it to all access. To modify default zone mode from no

access to all access, enter the defZone

--all command, and then the cfgSave command.

2. Confirm that the specific edge devices that must communicate with each other are in the same

zone.

• If they are not in the same zone and zoning is enabled, proceed to step 3.
