Zoning Limitations
HAFM has the ability to configure large zone sets, including up to 1024 zones and
1024 end ports in a single zone set.
Table 14 shows the supported limits for the
edge switches and directors.
Note: Hard Zoning is enforced upon firmware initialization. Devices not conforming
to zoning rules are restricted to their assigned zones.
Table 14: Zoning Parameters Supported Limits
Note: The supported number of zones is based on a zone name with a maximum of
32 characters. On all edge switches and directors except the Director 2/140, the
maximum number of zones decreases if full 64 character names are used. The
supported limits are based on two members per zone.
