select Zoning > Resolve Zoning.
Capture Active Zoning—The Capture Active Zoning option copies the active zone set to the configured
zone set.
Restore Configured Zoning—The Restore Configured Zoning option reverts back to the previously saved
configured zone set.
Capture Merged Zoning—The Capture Merged Zoning option saves the merged zone set into the
configured zone set.

dialog box to display the Merged and Configured zone sets in split panes. The items in the Merged
pane but not in the Configured pane are shown in red and are not persistent after a switch reset. The
items in the Configured pane but not in the Merged pane are shown in green and are persistent after a
