Configuration: Using iSCSI

4 In the Configured Ethernet port speed list, select a network speed for the

iSCSI host port.
The network speed values in the

Configured Ethernet port speed list

depend on the maximum speed that the network can support. Only the

network speeds that are supported are displayed.
All of the host ports on a single controller operate at the same speed. An

error is displayed if different speeds are selected for the host ports on the

same controller.

5 To use the IPv4 settings for the iSCSI host port, select Enable IPv4 and

select the

IPv4 Settings tab.

6 To use the IPv6 settings for the iSCSI host port, select Enable IPv6 and

select the

IPv6 Settings tab.

7 To configure the IPv4 and IPv6 settings:

• To automatically configure the settings, select

Obtain configuration

automatically. This option is selected by default.

• To manually configure the settings, select

Specify configuration.

NOTE:

If you select the automatic configuration method, the configuration is

obtained automatically using the DHCP for IPv4 settings. Similarly for IPv6

settings, the configuration is obtained automatically based on the MAC

address and the IPv6 routers present on the subnetwork.

NOTE:

Click Advanced IPv4 Settings and Advanced IPv6 Settings to

configure the Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) support and Ethernet

priority. Click the Advanced Host Port Settings to configure the TCP listening

port settings and Jumbo frame settings.

8 To enable the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP), select Enable

ICMP PING responses.
The ICMP setting applies to all the iSCSI host ports in the storage array

configured for IPv4 addressing.

NOTE:

The ICMP is one of the core protocols of the Internet Protocol suite.

The ICMP messages determine whether a host is reachable and how long it

takes to get packets to and from that host.

9 Click OK.
