Displaying zoning information for the switch

This section describes the command needed to display zoning information for the switch.

Use the cfgShow command to display the zoning information of the switch. Figure 1 shows a zoning example based on the unique worldwide port names of the host adapters and the storage unit fibre-channel ports. This is known as soft zoning. Each path to a storage unit LUN has a separate zone. For information on locating the worldwide port name for an SGI host, see "Locating the WWPN for an SGI host".
