Multiple Switch Zoning
Zones can be configured across multiple switches using a similar procedure to a single switch.
However, multiple-switch zoning requires some coordination between the switches. Building on
the example for ports in multiple zones, move the devices onto two switches and have the zones
stretch between the two, as in Figure 3-17.
In Figure 3-17, zone 1 includes ports 2, 4, 5, and cascade port 1, while zone 2 includes ports 3, 5,
6, and cascade port 1. Ports 1 (cascade port) and 5 are in both zones.
