Zoning selection options
The next step in configuring your switch is to select zoning. There are three choices:
•
Typical Zoning creates a port-based zoning scheme based on the connections made on the
Configure Ports and Connect Devices window (
Configure Ports and Connect Devices window (
). This zoning scheme creates a
two-member zone for every possible pairing of HBA (H) and storage (S) ports connected on the
Configure Ports and Connect Devices window. This ensures that any host device connected to
an H port is able to communicate with any storage device connected to an S port.

an H port is able to communicate with any storage device connected to an S port.
NOTE
You can use Typical Zoning for dual-capable devices (devices that are configured to function
both as initiators and targets), but in Typical Zoning mode, these devices are recognized as
targets by EZSwitchSetup and are rejected if attached to a host port.

Custom Zoning allows you to customize which initiators access which targets, and creates a
device-based zoning scheme based on your choices. The HBAs and storage devices should
already be connected to the switch. Custom Zoning provides a device accessibility matrix for
you to modify; it then automatically creates zones based on that matrix. Custom Zoning
supports only single-switch fabrics. If you select this option, when you click Next, the wizard
closes and the EZSwitchSetup Switch Manager application opens.

Advanced Zoning allows you complete customization of your zoning and should be used if you
are familiar with zoning and zoning practices. If you select this option, when you click Next, the
wizard closes and the Advanced Management application (Web Tools) opens. For specific
information about using Web Tools for zoning, refer to the Web Tools Administrator’s Guide.
