Table 3-2. Advanced iSCSI Host Port Settings (continued) Setting Ethernet Priority TCP Listening Port Jumbo Frames Description The network priority can be set from lowest to highest. Although network managers must determine these mappings, the IEEE has made broad recommendations: • 0 - lowest priority (default) • 1-4 - ranges from "loss eligible" traffic to controlled-load applications, such as streaming multimedia and businesscritical traffic • 5-6 - delay-sensitive applications such as interactive video and voice • 7 - highest priority reserved for network-critical traffic (do not use with the MD3000i) The default Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) listening port is 3260. The maximum transmission units (MTUs). It can be set between 1500 and 9000 bytes per frame. If the Jumbo Frames are disabled, the default MTU is 1500 bytes per frame. NOTE: Changing any of these settings resets the iSCSI port. I/O is interrupted to any host accessing that port. You can access the I/O automatically after the port restarts and the host logs in again. Viewing or Ending an iSCSI Session 1 Click the iSCSI tab, and then click View/End iSCSI Sessions. 2 Select the session you want to view in the Current sessions box. The details are shown below in the Details box. 3 If you want to end the session, perform the following steps: a Select the session that you want to end, and then click End Session to show the End Session confirmation window. 36 Using iSCSI

Using iSCSI
NOTE:
Changing any of these settings resets the iSCSI port. I/O is interrupted to
any host accessing that port. You can access the I/O automatically after the port
restarts and the host logs in again.
Viewing or Ending an iSCSI Session
1
Click the
iSCSI
tab, and then click
View/End iSCSI Sessions
.
2
Select the session you want to view in the
Current sessions
box. The
details are shown below in the
Details
box.
3
If you want to end the session, perform the following steps:
a
Select the session that you want to end, and then click
End Session
to
show the
End Session
confirmation window.
Ethernet Priority
The network priority can be set from lowest to highest.
Although network managers must determine these
mappings, the IEEE has made broad recommendations:
0
— lowest priority (default)
1-4
— ranges from "loss eligible" traffic to controlled-load
applications, such as streaming multimedia and business-
critical traffic
5-6
— delay-sensitive applications such as interactive
video and voice
7
— highest priority reserved for network-critical traffic
(do not use with the MD3000i)
TCP Listening Port
The default Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)
listening port is 3260.
Jumbo Frames
The maximum transmission units (MTUs). It can be set
between 1500 and 9000 bytes per frame. If the Jumbo
Frames are disabled, the default MTU is 1500 bytes per
frame.
