CISCO-ZS-EXT-MIB Download
The MIB module for the management of zoning within
the framework of Cisco's Zoning Server (ZS) Archi-
tecture which realizes the FC-GS4/SW3 requirements
for Zone Server. This MIB is an extension to the
CISCO-ZS-MIB, which is for managing zoning
conforming to FC-GS3/SW2. The FC-GS4 specification
is Fibre-Channel - Generic Services - 4 T11/
Project 1505-D/Rev 7.8. The SW3 specification is
Fibre-Channel - Switch Fabric - 3 T11/Project 1508-
D/Rev 6.6.
GS4/SW3 allows zoning to operate in either basic
or enhanced mode of operation. Basic mode is
essentially GS3/SW2 compatible mode (as modelled
by CISCO-ZS-MIB). Enhanced mode of operation
provides additional capabilities. In enhanced mode
of operation, all the configuration should be
done within the scope of a session.
The current 'Running Configuration' on the local device
for zone server is called the 'effective' database.
When the first configuration command on the zone server
data is received, a snapshot of the current 'effective
database' is taken on the local device. This
snapshot is called the 'copy' database. An implicit
session is started by the Zone Server on the local
device and all subsequent SET operations take place
in the context of this session. The 'copy' database
is used for all further modifications in the
session. There can be only one session active in the
entire Fibre Channel fabric. The user who initiates
the creation of this 'copy', is called the owner of
session. When a session has been created on a device
in the Fibre Channel fabric, if an attempt is made
to start a session from any other device in the
fabric, it results in error.
Once the modifications to the 'copy' are done, a
'commit' operation can be done. The 'commit' done
on the local device, results in the local 'effective
database' being overwritten with the 'copy' and
then the new local 'effective database' is
distributed to all other devices in the Fibre Channel
fabric. The successful 'commit' operation also results
in destroying the 'copy' on the local device. The
'commit' can only be performed by the owner of the
session.
The 'copy' can optionally be destroyed without any
distribution. This can be done by performing a
'clear' operation.

OID list for CISCO-ZS-EXT-MIB
- czseCapabilityTable
- This table lists the capabilities of the Zone Server on the local device. This information is maintained on a per VSAN basis.
- czseCapabilityEntry
- An entry represents the capability of the Zone Server on the local device on a VSAN.
- czseCapabilityObject
- This bitmap represents the capability of the local Zone Server on this VSAN. If 'enhancedMode(0)' bit is set, the local Zone Server is capable of supporting enhanced Zoning mode of operation. If this bit is reset, it does not have this capability. If 'zse ...
- czseModeTable
- A table containing information on the mode of operation of the zone server on all VSANs on the local device.
- czseModeEntry
- An entry represents the mode of operation of the local zone server on a VSAN. The mode can be modified on a VSAN and the outcome of the operation obtained.
- czseOperationMode
- This object when set to 'basic(1)', results in the zone server operating in the basic mode as defined by FC-GS4 standards. This object when set to 'enhanced(2)', results in the zone server operating in the enhanced mode as defined by FC-GS4 standards. The ...
- czseOperationModeResult
- The outcome of setting the mode of operation of the local Zone Server on this VSAN.
- czseReadFrom
- This object specifies whether the management station wishes to read from the 'effective database' or from the 'copy' database.
- czseSessionTable
- A table containing information on sessions on the local device on all VSANs. Operations are permitted on this table only when the zone server is running in 'enhanced' mode.
- czseSessionEntry
- An entry contains information on the owner of a session on a VSAN. It also assists in performing commit/clear operations on the session.
- czseSessionOwnerType
- This object specifies the owner type for this session.
- czseSessionOwner
- This object specifies the owner for this session. If the value of the corresponding instance of czseSessionOwnerType object is 'cli', this object will contain the user name of the CLI (Command Line Interface) user, who is the owner of the session on this ...
- czseSessionCntl
- This object assists in committing or clearing the contents of the 'copy' database on this session. No action is taken if this object is set to 'noop(3)'. The value of this object when read is always 'noop(3)'. The above operation can only be performed by ...
- czseSessionCntlResult
- This object indicates the outcome of setting the corresponding instance of czseSessionCntl object to 'commitChanges(1)'.
- czseMergeControlTable
- A table containing information on zone merge control policy on all VSANs in the entire fabric. Operations on this table are permitted only when the zone server is running in 'enhanced' mode.
- czseMergeControlEntry
- An entry contains information on the Merge Control policy on a VSAN. The policy can be modified on a per VSAN basis by making use of czseMergeContolRestrict object.
- czseMergeControlRestrict
- This object controls the zone merge behavior. If this object is set to 'allow', then the merge takes place according to the merge rules. If this object is set to 'restrict', then if the merging databases are not exactly identical, the Inter-Switch Link (I ...
- czseGlobalDefaultZoneBehaviour
- This object represents the initial value for default zone behaviour on a VSAN when it is created. If a VSAN were to be deleted and re-created again, the default zone behaviour will be set to the value specified for this object. The semantics of setting th ...
- czseGlobalPropagationMode
- This object represents the initial value for zone set propagation mode on a VSAN when it is created. If a VSAN were to be deleted and re-created again, the zone set propagation mode will be set to the value specified for this object. The semantics of sett ...
- ciscoZsExtConfigGroup
- A collection of object(s) for configuring and displaying Zone Server conforming with FC-GS4/SW3.
- ciscoZsExtConfigGroupSup1
- A collection of objects for configuring global zoning policies.
