Creating a zone alias
An alias is a logical group of port index numbers and WWNs. Specifying groups of ports or devices
as an alias makes zone configuration easier, by enabling you to configure zones using an alias
rather than inputting a long string of individual members. You can specify members of an alias
using the following methods:
•
Identifying members by switch domain and port index number pair (for example, 2, 20).
•
Identifying members by device node and device port WWNs.
Zone aliases are supported only in Brocade Native mode (InteropMode 0) and in a mixed Fabric OS
and M-EOS McDATA Fabric Mode (InteropMode 2).

3. Select an FC fabric from the Zoning Scope list.

8. Show all discovered fabrics in the Potential Members list by right-clicking in the Potential
Members list and selecting Display All.
9. Select one or more members that you want to add to the alias in the Potential Members list.
(Press SHIFT or CTRL and click each member to select more than one member.)
10. Click the right arrow between the Potential Members list and Selected Member(s) list to add
the selected members to the alias.
