Guidelines For Configuring Your Network For

iSCSI

This section provides general guidelines for setting up your network

environment and IP addresses for use with the iSCSI ports on your host server

and storage array. In order for hosts to communicate with management and/or

iSCSI ports of storage arrays, local NICs must be configured with IP addresses

capable of communication with the addresses listed in the IPv4/IPv6

worksheet. Your specific network environment may require different or

additional steps than shown here, so make sure you consult with your system

administrator before performing this setup.

Microsoft Windows Host Setup

To set up a Windows host network, you must configure the IP address and

netmask of each iSCSI port connected to the storage array. The specific steps

depend on whether you are using a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol

(DHCP) server, static IP addressing, Domain Name System (DNS) server, or

Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) server.

NOTE: The server IP addresses must be configured for network communication to

the same IP subnet as the storage array management and iSCSI ports.
