• Custom Zoning allows you to customize which initiators access which targets, and creates a

device-based zoning scheme based on your choices. The HBAs and storage devices should

already be connected to the switch. Custom Zoning provides a device accessibility matrix for you to

modify; it then automatically creates zones based on that matrix. Custom Zoning supports only

single-switch fabrics. If you select this option, when you click Next, the EZSwitchSetup switch

configuration wizard closes and the EZSwitchSetup Switch Manager application opens.

• Advanced Zoning allows you complete customization of your zoning and should be used if you are

familiar with zoning and zoning practices. If you select this option, when you click Next, the

EZSwitchSetup switch configuration wizard closes and the Advanced Management application

(Web Tools) opens. For specific information about using Web Tools for zoning, refer to the

Web

Tools Administrator's Guide.
