set config zoning Description Configures the zoning database. The changes you make with this command are not retained when you reset or power-cycle the switch unless you save them using the config save command. Authority Admin session and a Config Edit session Syntax set config zoning Initiates an editing session in which to change the zoning database configuration. The system displays each parameter one line at a time and prompts you for a value. For each parameter, enter a new value or press Enter to accept the current value shown in brackets. Table 39 describes the zoning configuration parameters. Table 39 Zoning configuration parameters Parameter MergeAutoSave DefaultZone DiscardInactive Description 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 MergeAutoSave parameter can be useful for preventing the propagation of zoning information when experimenting with different zoning schemes. However, leaving the MergeAutoSave parameter disabled can disrupt device configurations should a switch have to be reset. For this reason, the MergeAutoSave parameter should be enabled in a production environment. Enables (Allow) or disables (Deny) communication among ports/devices that are not defined in the active zone set. The default is Allow. 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.
