included in at least one of the zones in the active zone set are included in the default zone.
Enabling the default zone allows any device in the default zone to see any other device in
the default zone. If the default zone is disabled and no zone set is active, then devices
connected to the product cannot communicate.
To disable or enable the default zone, perform the following steps:
1.
In either the Zoning View or the Topology View, choose
Default Zone
from the
Configure
menu.
The Configure Default Zone dialog box displays (Figure 43). A message at the top of
the dialog box indicates whether the default zone is currently enabled or disabled. The
preferred mode is disabled.
