3. If you selected a stack and the zoning database is not identical on all
switches in the stack, choose a switch from the Select Source Switch list.
Changes that you make to this switch are distributed to the other switches in
the stack.

 Select a port/device in the Port/Device tree, and drag it into the zone.

ports/devices, press and hold CTRL while selecting. Select a zone set
in the left pane. On the Edit menu, click Add Members.
