Making Data Connections
Follow the instructions below for the type of controller used on your Vess R3600 subsystem.
iSCSI Options
The Vess R3600 Series includes various options for iSCSI networks. All Vess R3600 controllers, including the
Vess R3604fi, include four 1000BASE-T ports. The iSCSI data options for each of the available controllers are
as follows:
• Vess R3600i and Vess R3604fi: four 1000BASE-T ports
•
Vess R3600ti: four 1000BASE-T plus two 10G BASE-T ports
•
Vess R3600xi: four 1000BASE-T plus two 10G SFP+ ports
1000 BASE-T iSCSI SAN connections
All Vess R3600 models include four 1GbE IO ports. For the 1000BASE-T iSCSI storage network:
Connect suitable network cables (Cat-5e or Cat-6 Ethernet cable) between the one or both 1GbE IO ports on
one or both controllers to the 1000BASE-T network switch used for the iSCSI SAN. If you have multiple Vess
R3600 subsystems, repeat the cabling setup procedure as required.
