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:
switch(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
IPv4 address example:
switch(config-zone)# member ip-address 10.15.0.0
255.255.0.0
IPv6 address example:
switch(config-zone)# member ipv6-address
2001::db8:800:200c:417a/64
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.
Interface-based zoning only works with Cisco MDS 9000 Family switches. Interface-based zoning does
Note
not work if interop mode is configured in that VSAN.
