Configuring LSAN zones in the M-EOS fabric

To ensure connectivity with devices in the Fabric OS fabric, you must set up LSAN zones in each
edge fabric.
An LSAN is defined by a zone in an edge fabric. When zoning an LSAN containing multiple fabrics
with switches that are not running Fabric OS, you must use port WWN. Because port IDs are not
necessarily unique across fabrics, you cannot use the domain,port method of identification.
If the LSAN is configured and the proxy devices are created, the proxy device will show in the name
server of the edge fabric and the xlate domain will show in the fabric of the edge fabric.
