Configure the Gigabit Ethernet interface in slot 7 port 5 with the IP address and enable the interface.
Step 5
switch(config)# int gigabitethernet 7/5
switch(config-if)# ip address 10.15.1.1 255.255.255.0
switch(config-if)# no shut
Configure the iSCSI interface in slot 7 port 5 to identify all dynamic iSCSI initiators by IP address and
Step 6
enable the interface.
switch(config)# int iscsi 7/5
switch(config-if)# switchport initiator id name
switch(config-if)# no shut
Add static configuration for each iSCSI initiator.
Step 7
switch(config)# iscsi initiator name iqn.1987-05.com.cisco:01.e41695d16b1a
switch(config-iscsi-init)# static pWWN system-assign 1
switch(config-iscsi-init)# static nWWN system-assign
switch(config)# iscsi initiator ip address 10.15.1.11
switch(config-iscsi-init)# static pwwn system-assigned 1
switch(config-iscsi-init)# vsan 2
Host 1 is configured in VSAN 2.
Note
View the configured WWNs.
Step 8
Note
switch# show iscsi initiator configured
iSCSI Node name is iqn.1987-05.com.cisco:01.e41695d16b1a
iSCSI Node name is 10.15.1.11
Create a zone with host 1.
Step 9
switch(config)# zone name iscsi-zone-1 vsan 1
Add three members to the zone named iscsi-zone-1.
Step 10

The WWNs are assigned by the system. The initiators are members of different VSANs.
Member of vsans: 1
Node WWN is 20:03:00:0b:fd:44:68:c2
No. of PWWN: 1
Port WWN is 20:02:00:0b:fd:44:68:c2
Member of vsans: 2
No. of PWWN: 1
Port WWN is 20:06:00:0b:fd:44:68:c2
Fibre Channel storage for zone membership for the iSCSI initiator, either the iSCSI symbolic
node name or the pWWN, can be used. In this case, the pWWN is persistent.
The following command is based on the symbolic node name.
switch(config-zone)# member symbolic-nodename iqn.1987-05.com.cisco:01.e41695d16b1a
The following command is based on the persistent pWWN assigned to the initiator. You can obtain
the pWWN from the show iscsi initiator output.
switch(config-zone)# member pwwn 20:02:00:0b:fd:44:68:c2
