TABLE 68

Description

Switch A

Switch B

Expected results

Different default zone
access mode settings.

defzone: allaccess

defzone: noaccess

Clean merge -- noaccess takes
precedence and defzone
configuration from Switch B
propagates to fabric.

defzone: noaccess

Same default zone
access mode settings.

defzone: allaccess

defzone: allaccess

Clean merge -- defzone
configuration is allaccess in the
fabric.

defzone: noaccess

defzone: noaccess

Clean merge -- defzone
configuration is noaccess in the
fabric.

Effective zone
configuration.

No effective
configuration.defzone =
allaccess

effective: cfg2

defzone: allaccess or
noaccess

Clean merge -- effective zone
configuration and defzone mode
from Switch B propagates to
fabric.

Effective zone
configuration.

No effective
configuration.defzone =
noaccess

effective: cfg2

defzone: allaccess

Fabric segments because Switch
A
has a hidden zone
configuration (no access)
activated and Switch B has an
explicit zone configuration
activated.

Effective zone
configuration

effective: cfg1

defzone: noaccess

No effective
configuration.

defzone: noaccess

Clean merge -- effective zone
configuration from Switch A
propagates to fabric.

Effective zone
configuration

effective: cfg1

defzone: allaccess
