Static Mapping

You can manually (statically) create an iSCSI target by assigning a user-defined unique iSCSI node name
to it. The iSCSI qualified name is restricted to a minimum length of 16 characters and a maximum of
223 characters. A statically mapped iSCSI target can either map the whole Fibre Channel target port (all
LUNs in the target port mapped to the iSCSI target), or it can contain one or more LUs from a Fibre
Channel target port (see

To create a static iSCSI virtual target for the entire Fibre Channel target port, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config terminal
switch(config)#
Step 2
switch(config)# iscsi virtual-target name
iqn.iscsi-target-abc
switch(config-iscsi-tgt)#
Step 3
switch(config-iscsi-tgt)# pWWN

An iSCSI target cannot contain more than one Fibre Channel target port. If you have already mapped the

Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Creates the iSCSI target name
iqn.iscsi-target-abc.
Maps the Fibre Channel target port to the iSCSI
virtual target. One iSCSI target cannot contain
more than one Fibre Channel target port.
Do not specify the LUN if you wish to map the
whole Fibre Channel target to an iSCSI target. All
Fibre Channel target LUNs are exposed to iSCSI.
Maps a virtual target using LUN mapping
options.
Use this LUN option to map different Fibre
Channel LUNs to different iSCSI virtual targets.
The CLI interprets the LUN identifier

value as a hexadecimal value whether or
not the 0x prefix is included.
