Which two statements about SAN zoning on Cisco Nexus switches are true? (Choose two.)

A.
Unlike configured zones, default zone information is not distributed to the other switches in the

Based on http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps5989/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a0080662d35.html#wp1752996 there should be three correct answers – A, B and E as Cisco document says:
For A – “Unlike configured zones, default zone information is not distributed to the other switches in the fabric.”
For B – “Traffic can either be permitted or denied among members of the default zone. This information is not distributed to all switches; it must be configured in each switch.”
For E – “In soft zoning, zoning restrictions are applied only during interaction between the name server and the end device. If an end device somehow knows the FC ID of a device outside its zone, it can access that device.”
