When administering Zoning, the following steps are recommended:

1. Define zone aliases to establish groupings.

2. Add zone members.

3. Place zones into one or more zone configurations.

4. Enable one of the zone configurations (only one can be enabled at a time).

There are three separate methods for adding members to a zone. Each method
corresponds to a zoning “mode,” and the combination of the methods corresponds to
an additional mode. Once a mode is selected, all operations on zones must use the
zoning object selected. Zoning operations must correspond to that mode, and any
zones, aliases, and configuration files which cannot be selected.
