S 3 – Managing Fabrics Zoning a Fabric 3.7.1.1 Zones A zone is a named group of ports or devices that can communicate with each other. Devices within a zone can only communicate with other devices in the same zone. A device may participate in more than one zone. Membership in a zone can be defined by switch domain ID and port number, device Fibre Channel address (FCID), or device World Wide Name (WWN). WWN entries define zone membership by the World Wide Name of the attached device.
A 3 – Managing Fabrics Zoning a Fabric 3.7.1.1.2 Access Control List Hard Zones Access Control List (ACL) zoning divides the fabric for purposes of controlling discovery and inbound traffic. ACL zoning is a type of hard zoning that is hardware enforced. This type of zoning is useful for controlling access to certain devices without totally isolating them from the fabric. Devices can communicate with each other and transmit outside the ACL zone, but cannot receive inbound traffic from outside the zone.
S 3 – Managing Fabrics Zoning a Fabric 3.7.1.4 Zoning Database Each switch has its own zoning database. The zoning database is made up of all aliases, zones, and zone sets that have been created on the switch or received from other switches. The switch maintains two copies of the inactive zoning database: one copy is maintained in temporary memory for editing purposes; the second copy is maintained in permanent memory.
A 3 – Managing Fabrics Zoning a Fabric MaxAliases is 2500. The maximum number of aliases that can be configured on the switch. This will be enforced during the configuration of zoning and during a zoning database merge from the fabric. MaxTotalMembers is 10,000.
