Enabling zone configurations
Several zone configurations can reside on a switch at the same time, and you can quickly alternate
between them. For example, you might want to have one configuration enabled during the business
hours and another enabled overnight. However, only one zone configuration can be enabled at a time.
When you enable a zone configuration from Web Tools, the entire zoning database is automatically
saved, and then the selected zone configuration is enabled.
