Description
When using the iSCSI protocol, the target portal refers
to the unique combination of an IP address and TCP port
number by which an initiator can contact a target.
When using the iSCSI protocol, a target portal group is
a collection of target portals. Target portal groups are
managed transparently; each network interface has a
corresponding target portal group with that interface's
active addresses. Binding a target to an interface
advertises that iSCSI target using the portal group
associated with that interface.
Challenge-handshake authentication protocol, a security
protocol which can authenticate a target to an initiator, an
initiator to a target, or both.
A system for using a centralized server to perform CHAP
authentication on behalf of storage nodes.
A set of targets. LUNs are exported over all the targets in
one specific target group.
A set of initiators. When an initiator group is associated
with a LUN, only initiators from that group may access
the LUN.
A storage system end-point that provides a service of
processing SCSI commands and I/O requests from
an initiator. A target is created by the storage system
administrator, and is identified by unique addressing
methods. A target, once configured, consists of zero or
more logical units.
An application or production system end-point that
is capable of initiating a SCSI session, sending SCSI
commands and I/O requests. Initiators are also identified
by unique addressing methods.
