iSCSI SR2122 Storage Router: Getting Started Guide
Figure 21: Secondary Interface
The SCSI Router Instance is now available on the IP network for iSCSI Initiator iSCSI03 to
connect to once the iSCSI03 has its iSCSI driver loaded and configured.
Note:
Do not configure more than 8 XP LUNs into a target in a SCSI Router Instance. LUNs for other
devices have no such restriction.
iSCSI Initiator Setup
The IP host, or iSCSI Initiator uses the iSCSI Driver to enable target resource recognition &
attachment to the SR2122 over IP. The iSCSI driver is configured with the Gigabit Ethernet IP
address of each SCSI routing instance running on the SR2122 with which the host is to
transport SCSI requests and responses.
The iSCSI initiator sees the storage resources (LUNs) as if they were local drives attached
directly to the server.
Currently, the SR2122 supports Microsoft Windows 2000 and Red Hat Linux as iSCSI
Initiators.
