Configuring iSCSI Optimization

451

The following commands show how to configure the iSCSI example depicted

in Figure 16-6.

1 Enable iSCSI optimization on the switch.

console#config

console(config)#iscsi enable

2 Configure the switch to associate the DSCP priority 45 (and the queue

that is mapped to it) with detected iSCSI session traffic. The

remark

keyword indicates that the switch should add this priority marking on

packets as it forwards them.

console(config)#iscsi cos dscp 45 remark

console(config)#exit

3 The default target port and IP address criteria is used to determine which

packets are snooped for iSCSI session data (ports 860 and 3260; any IP

address), so no additional commands are required.
