In this example, the following LSAN zones would all be accepted:
lsan_abc
Lsan_xyz123456
LSAN_FAB1_abc
You can specify up to eight Enforce tags on an FC router.

Speed tag

During target discovery, the FC router process of presenting proxy devices and setting up paths to the
proxy devices might cause some sensitive hosts to time out or fail. The Speed tag allows you to speed up
the discovery process by importing the devices into the remote edge fabrics when the devices come online,
regardless of the state of the host. This helps sensitive hosts to quickly discover the devices without timing
out.
You set the Speed tag on the FC router, and then configure the LSANs in the target edge fabrics with the
tag.
For example, in
and D2. You could set up the Speed tag as follows:
1. In FC router 1 and FC router 2, configure the Speed tag as super.
2. In edge fabric 2, configure two LSANs:
lsan_f2_f1 (H1, D1)
lsan_f2_f3 (H1, D2)
The LSAN in the host fabric does not need the tag.
3. In edge fabric 1, configure the following LSAN:
lsan_super_f1_f2 (H1, D1)
4. In edge fabric 3, configure the following LSAN:
lsan_super_f3_f2 (H1, D2)
5. Toggle either the host or target to trigger the fast import process.
The super tag is needed only in the LSANs of the target fabrics.
The target proxies D1 and D2 are always present in the host fabric (edge fabric 2), even if the host is
brought down. A target proxy is removed from the host fabric when the target device is offline.
Figure 65 on page 392 assume that the host, H1, needs fast access to target devices D1
