Zoning
Dell Networking OS supports the zoning configurations for Fabric FCF Port mode operation.
In FCF Port mode, the fcoe-map fabric map-name has the default Zone mode set to deny. This setting
denies all the fabric connections unless included in an active zoneset. To change this setting, use the
default-zone-allow command. Changing this setting to all allows all the fabric connections without
zoning.
Zoning is a mechanism to ensure only the nodes that are part of a zone can communicate with each other.
Zoning prevents unauthorized access of storage assets. A zone consists of members which are nodes that the
adapter address, fabric address, interface, or alias specifies. S5000 supports using World Wide Port Name
(WWPN), Fibre Channel ID (FC-ID), or alias as members of a zone.
