Re: How to address more than one LUN in a target

2018-04-11 Thread Paul Koning
Gerry, I'm not sure I understand the question. iSCSI doesn't talk to LUNs, it talks to iSCSI targets. You address targets (by their IP address). Once you're talking to a target, iSCSI provides a path for SCSI to do its thing with that target. One of the things SCSI (not iSCSI) does is ask

What is SCST? Various crypto protocols indeed uses SHA-1 (typically in more complex form like HMAC) for message authentication. And each of them will obviously have some identifier for that. But that has nothing to do with CHAP. For CHAP in iSCSI, you have to look in the iSCSI RFC, and

Re: Getting log-message Login authentication failed with target .. during iSCSI login-redirect

2014-12-11 Thread Paul Koning
EqualLogic arrays always do a redirect, because you connect to the group address and you are redirected by the connection balancer to a specific interface IP address. The initiator is wrong to call code 0101 a “login error”. The RFC is perfectly clear that redirect is NOT an error condition.

iSCSI over WAN doesn't make much sense. You're right, the discovery machinery sends IP addresses, which won't work if the target is behind NAT. If you can tell the client to connect directory to a configured target IP address, that might work. It sounds like your client side has NAT; I
