Configuring a Zone

To configure a zone and assign a zone name, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config t
Step 2
switch(config)# zone name Zone1 vsan 3
switch(config-zone)#
Step 3
switch(config-zone)# member <type> <value>
pWWN example:
sswitch(config-zone)# member pwwn 10:00:00:23:45:67:89:ab
Fabric pWWN example:
switch(config-zone)# member fwwn 10:01:10:01:10:ab:cd:ef
FC ID example:
switch(config-zone)# member fcid 0xce00d1
FC alias example:
switch(config-zone)# member fcalias Payroll
Domain ID example:
switch(config-zone)# member domain-id 2 portnumber 23
FC alias example:
switch(config-zone)# member ipaddress 10.15.0.0 255.255.0.0
Local sWWN interface example:
switch(config-zone)# member interface fc 2/1
Remote sWWN interface example:
switch(config-zone)# member interface fc2/1 swwn
20:00:00:05:30:00:4a:de
Domain ID interface example:
switch(config-zone)# member interface fc2/1 domain-id 25
Tip
Use the show wwn switch command to retrieve the sWWN. If you do not provide a sWWN, the software
Tip
automatically uses the local sWWN.

IP address—The IP address of an attached device in 32 bytes in dotted decimal format along with
an optional subnet mask. If a mask is specified, any device within the subnet becomes a member of
the specified zone.
Interface—Interface-based zoning is similar to port-based zoning because the switch interface is
used to configure the zone. You can specify a switch interface as a zone member for both local and
remote switches. To specify a remote switch, enter the remote switch WWN (sWWN) or the domain
ID in the particular VSAN.
Use a relevant display command (for example, show interface or show flogi database) to
obtain the required value in hex format.
Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Configures a zone called Zone 1
for the VSAN called vsan3.
All alphanumeric
Note
characters or one of the
following symbols ($, -,
^, _) are supported.
Configures a member for the
specified zone (Zone1) based on
the type (pWWN, fabric
pWWN, FC ID, FC alias,
domain ID, IP address, or
interface) and value specified.
You must only
Caution
configure
pWWN-type zoning
on all MDS switches
running Cisco
SAN-OS if there is a
Cisco MDS 9020
switch running
FabricWare in the
same fabric to avoid
ISL isolation.
