About LUN Zoning
Logical unit number (LUN) zoning is a feature specific to switches in the Cisco MDS 9000 Series.
LUN zoning can only be implemented in Cisco MDS 9000 Series switches. If LUN zoning is implemented
in a switch, you cannot configure the interop mode in that switch.
Caution
A storage device can have multiple LUNs behind it. If the device port is part of a zone, a member of the zone
can access any LUN in the device. With LUN zoning, you can restrict access to specific LUNs associated
with a device.
When LUN 0 is not included within a zone, then, as per standards requirements, control traffic to LUN 0 (for
example, REPORT_LUNS, INQUIRY) is supported, but data traffic to LUN 0 (for example, READ, WRITE)
is denied.
Note
• Host H1 can access LUN 2 in S1 and LUN 0 in S2. It cannot access any other LUNs in S1 or S2.
