switch Zoning conflict parameters

Zoning conflict parameters
When merging two fabrics, zoning information from the two previously separated
fabrics is merged as much as possible into the new fabric. Sometimes, zoning
inconsistency can occur and zoning information cannot be merged.

Segmentation due to zoning will usually be flagged by an error message that
says "Fabric segmented, zone conflict" appearing in the error logs.
One of the solutions is to make sure zoning information on both switches is
consistent before bringing up the ISL.

The other solution is to make sure that the switch we are adding to the fabric is
cleared of any zoning information. This can be done by following this process:

  1. Telnet into the switch you are adding, and press Enter.
  2. Login, enter your userid and password, disable the switch with the switchdisable command.
  3. Disable the active configuration using cfgdisable, for example, cfgdisable “ITSO_CFG ”.
  4. Issue the cfgclear command to clear all zoning information.
  5. Issue the cfgsave command to save the changes.
  6. Issue the switchenable command to enable the switch.

This is the example command flow of this process.

This image shows the commands for the six steps listed above.

Webmin configuration for LDAP

By -
We cannot add or delete users by default so we have to do below changes in LDAP module in GUI mode only. Configuring the module The most complex part of using this module is configuring it to talk to your LDAP server. By default, it will attempt to auto-detect the settings by looking at the LDAP client settings on your system, documented on the LDAPClient page. However, if this fails (perhaps because the LDAP server is not one of its own clients), you will need to configure the module manually as follows : On the module's main page, click on the Module Config link. In the LDAP server host field, enter the hostname of your LDAP server. If it is running on the same machine, enter localhost. If the LDAP server is using encryption, change the LDAP server uses TLS? option to Yes. In the Bind to LDAP server as field, enter the full DN of the administrative user for your LDAP server. This might be something like cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=com. In the Credentials for bind name above field,
