About FC Alias Creation
You can assign an alias name and configure an alias member using either the FC ID, fabric port WWN (fWWN), or pWWN values.
- pWWNThe WWN of the N or NL port in hex format (for example, 10:00:00:23:45:67:89:ab).
- fWWNThe WWN of the fabric port name in hex format (for example, 10:00:00:23:45:67:89:ab).
- FC IDThe N port ID in 0xhhhhhh format (for example, 0xce00d1).
- Domain IDThe domain ID is an integer from 1 to 239. A mandatory port number of a non-Cisco switch is required to complete this membership configuration.
- IPv4 addressThe IPv4 address of an attached device in 32 bits in dotted decimal format along with an optional subnet mask.
- IPv6 addressThe IPv6 address of an attached device in 128 bits in colon(:)-separated hexadecimal format.
- InterfaceInterface-based zoning is similar to port-based zoning because the switch interface is used to configure the zone.
