5.3 HOW TO MONITOR AND MANAGE DEVICES

EFCM AND ZONING IN M-SERIES FABRICS

It is necessary to have the Zoning Module in EFCM to manage zoning.

Figure 6: Active Zone Set Tab in EFCM

Zone and Zone Set naming conventions:

• Names are NOT case sensitive

• Names cannot begin with “SANav_” or “SMP”. These prefixes are reserved. Any M-Series switch

having a zone beginning with a reserved prefix will not be discovered.

• Names cannot begin with a number

• Recommended maximum character limit is 60 characters

• No duplicate names are allowed between zones or zone sets in the same zone library

It should be noted that EFCM can also manage zoning in a B-Series fabric as well.
