Cisco Nexus 5000 Series - Zone Sets; Activating a Zone Set

Zone Sets
In the following figure, two separate sets are created, each with its own membership hierarchy and zone
members.
Figure 34: Hierarchy of Zone Sets, Zones, and Zone Members
Zones provide a method for specifying access control, while zone sets are a grouping of zones to enforce
access control in the fabric. Either zone set A or zone set B can be activated (but not together).
Zone sets are configured with the names of the member zones and the VSAN (if the zone set is in a
configured VSAN).
Tip
