How to find if FC-Switch using port-zoning or not Brocade FC 300
I have to replace a HBA on RedHat5.3 due to card failure.
A tech guy asked me that "Check your FC-Switch Zoning Type of Port Zoning or not? , because if host accessed by WWNN, you'll need to update FC-switch config"
Is this below result on Brocade FC 300 showing Port-Zoning configuration or not?

Simple answer is to check zoneshow command output to list all configured zones. Zones that look like:
zone:test_1
21:00:00:24:XX:XX:XX:XX
50:06:01:60:XX:XX:XX:XX
50:06:01:69:XX:XX:XX:XX
Are using WWN addresses.
If you see something like:
zone:test_1
1,1
1,6
1,7
Then, you are using port-zoning. Here, the first 1 is the SwitchDomain ID and 1,6,7 are port numbers on that switch.
Also, zones can have a mixture of WWNs and ports definitions. Don't forget to do the same on the second Brocade switch as they are usually implementing Dual-Fabric configuration for redundancy and multi-pathing.
