Eclipse™ 2640 SAN Router Administration and Configuration Manual
Introduction
Introduction
SAN Routers support true gigabit wire-speed iSCSI-FC gateway
functionality, which means they can translate iSCSI traffic to Fibre
Channel traffic and vice versa. Using SAN Routers, iSCSI initiators
can access FC storage devices as shown in
Figure 5-1
. The initiators
and targets (FC or iSCSI) can be either directly connected to the SAN
Router or connected across an FC or IP network as shown.
Figure 5-1
iSCSI Initiators Accessing FC Target
E/OSi supports the iSCSI specification RFC 3720.
Figure 5-2
illustrates an example of an iSCSI configuration. This
configuration includes an iSCSI-enabled server (Web Server) through
an iSCSI HBA or an iSCSI driver running on a traditional NIC
(network interface card) or a TOE (TCP offload engine).
