Appendix C Supported iSCSI Initiators

The scope of products available for Ethernet networking is too broad to allow Dell to test every device
for use within an EqualLogic SAN. Dell's goal is not to restrict which infrastructure components a
customer can integrate with the EqualLogic SAN, but to provide a clear statement of how Dell will
rd
support 3 Party devices that have not been tested and validated by the switch vendors. We will
provide support for these products to the best of our ability, but we make no guarantee that the device
will be compatible with EqualLogic storage solutions.
