Configuring the Zone Set 4 Configuring the Zone Set A zone set is a group of zones that is activated or deactivated as a single entity across all managed products in either a single switch or a multiswitch fabric. Only one zone set can be active at one time (although the default zone can be active at the same time as a zone set). For a listing of limits on parameters regarding zones, see Table 4-1 on page 4-10. To configure zones sets, select Configure > Zoning on the navigation panel. The Zoning configuration page (Figure 4-3) displays. Zone sets are created and modified in the Zone Set panel. You can use this panel to perform the following tasks: • Create a Zone Set on page 4-17 • Name and Rename a Zone Set on page 4-18 • Add Zones to the Zone Set on page 4-18 • Delete Zones From the Zone Set on page 4-19 • Change a Zone that is in the Zone Set on page 4-19 • Activate and Cancel the Zone Set Changes on page 4-19 • Deactivate the Active Zone Set on page 4-20 • State of the Default Zone on page 4-20 Create a Zone Set A zone set has two primary attributes, the zone set name and the list of zones that are members of the zone set. Both of these are configured using the Zone Set panel. To set the zone set name, use the procedure described in Name and Rename a Zone Set on page 4-18. To add zones to the zone set, use the procedures described in Add Zones to the Zone Set on page 4-18. When you have defined all of the attributes of the zone set, click the Update button to save the configuration. The zone set is not active on the fabric until you select the Activate button. For information about activating and canceling changes, see Activate and Cancel the Zone Set Changes on page 4-19. Configuring Zoning 4-17
