Maximum Number of Zones Supported in Interop Mode 4
In interop mode 4, the maximum number of zones that is supported in an active zone set is 2047, due to
limitations in the connected vendor switch.

in the active zone set is 2047.
InterVSAN Routing
When using InterVSAN Routing (IVR), it is recommended to enable Cisco Fabric Services (CFS) on all
IVR-enabled switches. Failure to do so may cause mismatched active zone sets if an error occurs during
zone set activation.
Java Web Start
When using Java Web Start, it is recommended that you do not use an HTML cache or proxy server. You
can use the Java Web Start Preferences panel to view or edit the proxy configuration. To do this, launch
the Application Manager, either by clicking the desktop icon (Microsoft Windows), or type ./javaws in
the Java Web Start installation directory (Solaris Operating Environment and Linux), and then select
Edit> Preferences.
If you fail to change these settings, you may encounter installation issues regarding a version mismatch.
If this occurs, you should clear your Java cache and retry.
