a zoning transaction. The following URI provides support for starting, committing, and aborting a
zone transaction on a specific fabric.

Request parameters
Note
• You must create a request instance of type ControlZoneTransactionRequest and send it
through the POST request.
• If you are carrying out LSAN zoning, you must set the lsanZoning parameter to true. It is false
by default.
• LSAN zoning is supported only in the context of a backbone fabric.
• The Boolean properties in the input are case-sensitive. Only a value of “true” in the input
converts to a Boolean true. All other values are interpreted as Boolean false.
• The request schema is ControlZoneTransactionRequest.
