iSCSI Offload in Linux Server
Ifconfig eth.<VLANID> <static ip> up — Assigns and IP address
to the VLAN interface.
Use the following command to get detailed information about VLAN interface:
# cat /proc/net/vlan/ethx.<vlanid>
Preserve the VLAN configuration across reboots by adding it to configuration files.
Configure the VLAN interface configuration in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts. The
configuration file name has a specific format that includes the physical interface, a
character, and the VLAN ID.
For example, if the VLAN ID is 100, and the physical interface is eth0, then the
configuration file name should be ifcfg-eth0.100. The following are example
settings in the configuration file.
"DEVICE=ethX.100
"BOOTPROTO=static
"ONBOOT=yes
"IPADDR=<>
"NETMASK=<>
"USERCTL=no
"NETWORK=<>
"VLAN=yes

Add Static Entry

iscsiadm -m node -p <ipaddr[:port]> -T
iqn.2007-05.com.qlogic:target1 -o new -I <iface_file_name>

iSCSI Target Discovery Using 'SendTargets'

iscsiadm -m discovery --type sendtargets -p <ipaddr[:port]> -I
<iface_file_name>

Login to Target Using 'iscsiadm' Command

iscsiadm --mode node --targetname <iqn.targetname> --portal
