> # Smart Zoning

> Smart zoning supports zoning among more devices by reducing the number of zoning entries that needs to be programmed by considering device type information without increasing the size of the zone set. Smart zoning enables you to select the end device type. You can select if the end device type should be a host or a target. Smart zoning can be enabled at zone level, zone set level, member, and at VSAN level.

> Note If smart zoning is set at the VSAN level, then you cannot enbale or disable smart zoning at zone set level or zone level.
