iSCSI Interface MTU Set MTU Interface Name
iSCSI Interface VLAN Set VLAN ID Interface Name
iSCSI Interface IPAddress Remove Interface Name
iSCSI Interface Netmask Remove Interface Name
iSCSI Interface Gateway Remove Interface Name
iSCSI Interface MTU Reset Interface Name
iSCSI Interface VLAN Remove Interface Name
DESCRIPTION
The iSCSI Interface Set, iSCSI Interface Remove and iSCSI Interface Show commands can help you to configure the interface properties like Gateway, IP address, MTU, Netmask, and VLAN for an ISCSI interface.
OPTIONS
- Interface Show
This command lets you view the interface properties.
- Interface IPAddress Set IP address Interface Name
This command configures the IP address for the iSCSI interface. Only IPv4 addresses are supported.
- Interface Netmask Set Netmask Interface Name
This command configures the Netmask for the iSCSI interface. You may optionally enter the iSCSI interface name that you want to configure. Run iSCSI > Interface Show to view all the available iSCSI interfaces.
Note the following about interface names:
It can only contain numbers (0-9), letters (A-Z and a-z), colons (:), hyphens (-), underscrores (_) and periods (.).
It must begin with numbers (0-9), letters (A-Z and a-z) and underscores (_) only.
Example: iscsi.1
- Interface Gateway Set Gateway Interface Name
This command configures the gateway for the iSCSI interface. You may optionally enter the iSCSI interface name that you want to configure.
- Interface MTU Set MTU value Interface Name
This command configures the MTU for the iSCSI interface. The MTU controls the maximum transmission unit size for an Ethernet frame. It must be a number from 68 to 65535. Note that when you configure the MTU for an iSCSI interface, the new MTU value is configured for both the iSCSI interface and the network interface to which it is mapped.
- Interface VLAN Set VLAN ID Interface name
This command configures VLAN ID for the iSCSI interface. If you want to configure VLAN, you should configure it either on the network interface or on the iSCSI interface and not both. If you configure the VLAN for both the iSCSI and the network interface, the VLAN value that is configured for the network interface applies. You may choose to not configure VLAN on either the network or the iSCSI interface.
The VLAN ID must be a number from 1 to 4095.
- Interface IPAddress Remove Interface Name
This command removes the IP address from the specified interface.
- Interface Netmask Remove Interface Name
This command removes the Netmask from the specified interface.
- Interface Gateway Remove Interface Name
This command removes the gateway from the specified interface.
- Interface MTU Reset Interface Name
This command resets MTU to the default value (1500) on both the iSCSI interface and the network interface to which it maps. The MTU cannot be removed and can only be reset to it's default value.
