Configuring and Managing Zones
Configures permit as the default zoning policy for new VSANs on the switch.
Step 3
switch(config)# system default zone distribute full
Enables full zone database distribution as the default for new VSANs on the switch.
Step 4
switch(config)# system default zone gs {read | read-write}
Configures read only or read-write (default) as the default generic service permission for new VSANs on the switch.
Note
Since VSAN 1 is the default VSAN and is always present on the switch, the system default zone commands
have no effect on VSAN 1.
Configuring Zone Generic Service Permission Settings
Zone generic service permission setting is used to control zoning operation through generic service (GS)
interface. The zone generic service permission can be read-only, read-write or none (deny).
To configure generic service (GS) settings, follow these steps:
Step 1
switch# configure terminal
Enters configuration mode.
Step 2
switch(config)# zone gs {read | read-write}vsan 3000
Configures gs permission value as read only or read-write in the specified VSAN.
