iscsi target port

tcp-port-1

[

tcp-port-2...tcp-port-16]

[address

ip-address] [name

targetname]

Configure an iSCSI target port and, optionally,

address and name.

tcp-port-n—TCP port number or list of TCP port

numbers on which the iSCSI target listens to

requests. Up to 16 TCP ports can be defined in the

system in one command or by using multiple

commands.

ip-address—IP address of the iSCSI target. When

the no form of this command is used, and the tcp

port to be deleted is one bound to a specific IP

address, the address field must be present.

targetname—iSCSI name of the iSCSI target. The

name can be statically configured; however, it can be

obtained from iSNS or from sendTargets response.

The initiator must present both its iSCSI Initiator

Name and the iSCSI Target Name to which it wishes

to connect in the first login request of a new session

or connection.
