iSCSI Host

These settings are input manually and are used to locate your NAS on your
network. There are two ways to find your NAS server, listed below. Select either
DNS name or IP address.
B1 DNS name: (ask your system administrator)
Used when DNS server (Domain Name System) is present. Typically
this is used when using GEN DAQ systems in a corporate network. If
no DNS server is found or if the returned network name did not resolve,
the iSCSI will not connect.
B2 IP address:
Used when DNS (Domain Name Server) is not available. Typically this
is selected when using GEN DAQ systems in an isolated network set-
up. Input the same IP address as the one used in the setup of the NAS.
B3 Port number:
Typically for iSCSI this number is fixed at 3260.
Only change this if the NAS server uses a different port.
11.3.6

iSCSI Target

These settings are used to locate your iSCSI LUN on your NAS server.
The iSCSI protocol works with the iSCSI LUN (Logical Unit Number) system.
An iSCSI LUN is a virtual-disk made up of a number of physical disks. They
can be any size, and span multiple physical disks within the NAS system or
vise-versa; use 1 physical disk for multiple iSCSI LUNs.
