Managing iSCSI
iSCSI Optimization provides a means of giving traffic between iSCSI initiator and target systems special
Quality of Service (QoS) treatment. This is accomplished by monitoring traffic to detect packets used by
iSCSI stations to establish iSCSI sessions and connections. Data from these exchanges is used to
create classification rules that assign the traffic between the stations to a configured traffic class.
Packets in the flow are queued and scheduled for egress on the destination port based on these rules.
The iSCSI Optimization folder contains links to the following web pages:
”iSCSI Global Configuration”
”iSCSI Targets Table”
”iSCSI Sessions”
”iSCSI Sessions Detailed”

Configuring iSCSI Global Configuration Page
Use the iSCSI Optimization-Global Parameters page to configure iSCSI Optimization on the switch.
Selection Criteria
iSCSI Status -
Use to either Enable or Disable iSCSI Optimization. The default is Disable.
QoS Profile -
Select the quality of service profile that will be applied to iSCSI flows.
VLAN Priority Tag
DSCP
By default, iSCSI flows are assigned to the highest VPT/DSCP mapped to the highest queue not
used for stack management or voice VLAN. Be sure to configure the relevant Class of Service
parameters for the queue in order to complete the setting.
DSCP -
If using DSCP, assign a DSCP value to iSCSI session packets
VLAN Priority Tag -
If using VLAN Priority Tag, assign a VLAN Priority Tag value to iSCSI session
packets
Remark -
Use to either Enable or Disable the Remark mode. The default is Disable. Enabling
