To access your storage system from an iSCSI-attached device, you must create a LUN group and assign one or more LUNs to the LUN group. LUN groups allow you to organize LUNs and manage access rights to LUN groups. Access rights are either open or granted through internal CHAP authentication. Access rights apply to LUN groups, not to individual LUNs. You can easily assign a LUN to a LUN group or move a LUN from one LUN group to another LUN group. Each LUN group is assigned an iSCSI target address (for example, iqn.1994-11.com.netgear:f2f2fdd4) that allows iSCSI clients to access the LUN group. For more information, see Manage Access Rights for LUN Groups on page 89. Each ReadyNAS supports a maximum of 256 iSCSI targets. Create a LUN Group To create a LUN group: 1. Log in to the ReadyNAS. 2. Select iSCSI. 3. Click the New Group button in the upper right of the window. 4. In the Name field, enter a name. The default name is groupX, where X is a number in sequential and ascending order. LUNs 86

LUN Groups and Access Rights
When you create a LUN, the LUN is unassigned.To access your storage system from an iSCSI-attached
device, you must create a LUN group and assign one or more LUNs to the LUN group.
LUN groups allow you to organize LUNs and manage access rights to LUN groups. Access rights are either
open or granted through internal CHAP authentication. Access rights apply to LUN groups, not to individual
LUNs.You can easily assign a LUN to a LUN group or move a LUN from one LUN group to another LUN
group.
Each LUN group is assigned an iSCSI target address (for example, iqn.1994-11.com.netgear:f2f2fdd4) that
allows iSCSI clients to access the LUN group. For more information, see
Manage Access Rights for LUN
Groups
on page 89. Each ReadyNAS supports a maximum of 256 iSCSI targets.
