Zoning management
You can monitor and manage basic and traffic isolation zoning through the Web Tools Zone
Administration. The information in the Zone Administration window is collected from the selected
switch.
If the FCS policy is activated in the fabric, zoning can be administered only from the primary FCS
switch. If the selected switch has an Advanced Zoning license installed, but is not the primary FCS
switch, the Zone Admin option is displayed, but not activated.
You must be logged into the switch using a user name with one of the following roles associated
with it to make changes to the zoning: zoneAdmin, admin, or fabricAdmin. All other roles allow only
a view or read-only access. Most of the zoning operations are disabled in read-only mode.
A snapshot is taken of all the zoning configurations at the time you launch the Zone Administration
window; this information is not updated automatically by Web Tools. To update this information,
see “Refreshing Zone Administration window information” on page 135.
When you log in to a virtual switch, or select a virtual switch from the Switch Administration
window, only the ports that are associated with the Virtual Fabric ID you selected are displayed in
the member selection list. You can use the Add Other button to add ports of other switches in the
fabric.
