iSCSI Boot

ENGSRVT52-CDUM100-R
NOTE:
When using a DHCP server, the DNS server entries are overwritten by the values provided by the DHCP
server. This occurs even if the locally provided values are valid and the DHCP server provides no DNS server
information. When the DHCP server provides no DNS server information, both the primary and secondary DNS
server values are set to 0.0.0.0. When the Windows OS takes over, the Microsoft iSCSI initiator retrieves the iSCSI
Initiator parameters and configures the appropriate registries statically. It will overwrite whatever is configured.
Since the DHCP daemon runs in the Windows environment as a user process, all TCP/IP parameters have to be
statically configured before the stack comes up in the iSCSI Boot environment.
If DHCP Option 17 is used, the target information is provided by the DHCP server, and the initiator iSCSI name is retrieved
from the value programmed from the Initiator Parameters screen. If no value was selected, then the controller defaults to the
name:
iqn.1995-05.com.broadcom.<11.22.33.44.55.66>.iscsiboot
where the string
11.22.33.44.55.66
corresponds to the controller’s MAC address.
If DHCP option 43 (IPv4 only) is used, then any settings on the Initiator Parameters, 1st Target Parameters, or 2nd Target
Parameters screens are ignored and do not need to be cleared.
