CLI Commands config.zoning Commands Note that the config.zoning commands function in a different way from the other CLI commands, which are single action commands that take effect immediately. A zoning configuration is typically too complicated to be described by a single command, so the first zoning command entered invokes a work-area editor. The commands take effect on a temporary copy of a zone set in the work area until the temporary copy in the work area is activated to the fabric--or is discarded. Because not all the verification of the zone set can occur on the temporary copy in the work area, it is possible, however unlikely, that the copy of the zone set encounters no errors until the zone set is activated to the fabric. NOTE: Port numbers cannot be used for zone members if the interoperability mode for the Switch or Director is set to Open Fabric 1.0 mode. In this case, you must use node WWNs as zone members. 2-64 CLI reference guide for directors and edge switches

CLI Commands
config.zoning Commands
Note that the
config.zoning
commands function in a different way from the other
CLI commands, which are single action commands that take effect immediately. A
zoning configuration is typically too complicated to be described by a single
command, so the first zoning command entered invokes a work-area editor. The
commands take effect on a temporary copy of a zone set in the work area until the
temporary copy in the work area is activated to the fabric--or is discarded.
Because not all the verification of the zone set can occur on the temporary copy in the
work area, it is possible, however unlikely, that the copy of the zone set encounters no
errors until the zone set is activated to the fabric.
NOTE:
Port numbers cannot be used for zone members if the interoperability mode for the
Switch or Director is set to Open Fabric 1.0 mode. In this case, you must use node WWNs as
zone members.
