The three network ports on the DS300 model 1701-1RS and 1701-2RD
controllers are labeled ETH0, ETH2 and ETH3. ETH0 is used only to access the
controller to make configuration changes and administer the unit. ETH2 and
ETH3 are iSCSI interfaces used to pass data/traffic to the initiator. There is a
fourth Ethernet port on the DS300 controller named ETH1. It is used for
backchannel communication to keep the two controllers synchronized.
