Table 13-19. Zoning Configuration Parameters
Parameter Description
InteropAutoSave Enables (True) or disables (False) the saving of changes to active
zone set in the switch’s non-volatile zoning database.The default
is True.
Disabling the Autosave parameter can be useful to prevent the
propagation of zoning information when experimenting with differ-
ent zoning schemes. However, leaving the InteropAutoSave
parameter disabled can disrupt device configurations should a
switch have to be reset. For this reason, the InteropAutoSave
parameter should be enabled in a production environment.
DefaultZone Enables (True) or disables (False) communication among
ports/devices that are not defined in the active zone set. The
default is True.
DiscardInactive Enables (True) or disables (False) the discarding of all inactive
zone sets from that zoning database. Inactive zone sets are all
zone sets except the active zone set. The default is False.
