Use of redundancy will prevent disconnection in the event of a port failure on a controller or cable failure. For
dual controller subsystems, the iSCSI protocol already has Multipath I/O for redundancy and load balancing.
However for NAS it is necessary to create a port trunk to achieve this. Further redundancy is created with more
advanced cabling and two switches or routers, and with redundant IP settings.
The first method of redundancy using a single switch or router, uses that same basic cabling arrangement as
illustrated in the previous example except that two ports on each controller are trunked and assigned a NAS
portal. This example is explained in “Table 2: Redundant portal settings” below and illustrated in “Redundancy
with port configuration”.
Table 2: Redundant portal settings
Controller ID 1 2
Port ID 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
Trunk 1 2 Trunk 1 1 2 Trunk 1
iSCSI Portal ID 1 2 X 3 4 X
NAS Portal ID X X 16 X X If failover = NAS
Portal ID 16
