Configuring iSNS for iSCSI Target Discovery

An iSNS maintains a database of storage network elements that can be queried for

iSCSI targets by other hosts within the SAN. iSCSI storage devices in particular can

register targets with the iSNS for efficient discovery by iSCSI clients such as the

OneCommand Manager application.
Use the iSCSI iSNS tab to configure the iSNS server or to discover the server using

DHCP.

To add a server:

2. Enter the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the iSNS server and the TCP port number.

Note: On OCe14000 series adapters, an IPv4 and a IPv6 iSNS address can be added.

For other adapters, only an IPv4 address can be added.

Note: On OCe14000 series adapters, up to four iSNS servers can be added. For other

adapters, only one iSNS server can be added.
