Connecting to an iSCSI RAID

This guide covers configuration of the iSCSI initiator within the Windows PC (Kollector/NVR) and an iSCSI RAID. It shows

initially how to connect the two units together but may be equally helpful when reconnecting or fault finding.

For best performance the iSCSI RAID should be connected via a dedicated network shown in Red below.

NOTE: IP Addresses shown are for guidance only. Please check the Network settings on each device before proceding as they may be different.

Go to Control Panel and

start the iSCSI Initiator

And then Advanced.

Click on Discovery, Discover Portal.
