NOTE: The command fcrlsanmatrix --add 0 0 will erase the entire LSAN Zone Matrix settings in the
cache.
To set up LSAN zone binding:
1. Log in to the switch as admin.
2. Enter the followng command to add a pair:
FCR:Admin > fcrlsanmatrix --add <FabricID1> <FabricID2>
3. Enter the following command to apply the changes persistently:
FCR:Admin > fcrlsanmatrix --apply
To view the LSAN zones static and dynamic bindings:
1. Log on to the switch as admin.
2. Enter the command as follows:
fcrlsanmatrix --fabricview
The following is an example:
FCR:Admin > fcrlsanmatrix --fabricview

Dual backbone configuration

When dual backbones share edge fabrics, one of the backbones is selected to be the owner of the edge
fabric which sends device state updates to the other backbone through the shared edge fabric. When the
'LSAN Zone binding' feature is enabled, the LSAN Zone Matrix settings for the shared edge fabrics must
be the same on both backbones. Both backbone fabrics must have the same LSAN Zone Matrix settings.
If the settings are different, the outcome will be inconsistent. Both backbone fabrics will end up having the
setup of the owner fabric which can change on reboot or on a port disable or enable.

Maximum LSAN count

The fcrlsancount command lets you configure the maximum number of LSANs, or LSAN count, that
can be configured on the edge fabric, which is up to 5000 without disabling the switch. By default, the
maximum LSAN count is set to 3000. This command lets you create more LSANs on your edge fabric
where needed. The maximum number of devices supported is still 10000.
236 Using the FC-FC routing service
Clears the information from the cache and put it back to the saved
value.
Displays the information that is saved in the cache.
Displays the static and default and dynamic binding of the backbone
to show which edge fabrics can access each other.
Verifies if the information in the cache is valid and will not disrupt
existing import/export devices.
Runs a quick mode to derive the LSAN Zone matrix from the current
import/export database.
