Example WAN optimization iSCSI configuration
This example shows how to configure FortiGate WAN optimization to use iSCSI for the
topology shown in
Figure 423
. The example describes adding the iSCSI server, creating a
40-Gbyte partition on the ISCSI server, adding 15 and 25 WAN optimization storages to
the partition, using the 15 Gbyte storage for web caching and the 25 Gbyte partition for
byte caching.

To configure WAN optimization to use an iSCSI server
1
Enter the following command to add the iSCSI server to the FortiGate configuration.
config wanopt iscsi
set first_target 192.168.20.100
end
If required you can also change the TCP port used for iSCSI. The default iSCSI port is
TCP 3260. Its also common for some iSCSI servers to use TCP 860. If required, use
the following command to change the iSCSI port to 860:
config wanopt iscsi
set iscsi-port 860
end
2
Enter the following command to view the SCSI devices that the FortiGate unit can save
data to (example output shown, actual output should be similar):
# execute scsi-dev list
Device 1
74.5 GB
ref: 0
(Vendor: ATA Model:
FUJITSU MHW2080B? Rev: 000)
partition 1
74.5 GB
ref: 1
label: <none>
Device 2
60.3 GB
ref: 16
(Vendor: IET Model:
VIRTUAL-DISK Rev: 0)
In the example output,
Device 1
is a FortiGate-ASM-S08 and
Device 2
is the iSCSI
device added in step
1
.
3
Enter the following command to create the 40 Gbyte partition on the iSCSI device.
execute scsi-dev partition create 16 40000
Partition is created on /dev/sdc with file system; size: 40000MB
4
Enter the following command to display the new partition:
# execute scsi-dev list
Device 1
74.5 GB
ref: 0
(Vendor: ATA Model: FUJITSU
MHW2080B? Rev: 000)
partition 1
74.5 GB
ref: 1
label: <none>
Device 2
60.3 GB
ref: 16
(Vendor: IET Model: VIRTUAL-DISK
Rev: 0)
