Zones are configured within VSANs. The Logical tab displays the VSANs configured in the currently
discovered fabric. Note that zone information must always be identical for all the switches in the network
fabric. You can configure up to 8K zones in a VSAN.
To configure pWWN-based zones using the Zone configuration tool, follow these steps:
Step 1 Click the Edit Local Full Zone Database icon as shown in Figure 5-2.
