Command Modes Configuration mode.
Command History
Usage Guidelines This command is used to configure a static iSCSI target for access by iSCSI initiators. A virtual target
may contain a subset of LUs of an FC target or one whole FC target.
Do not specify the LUN if you wish to map the whole Fibre Channel target to an iSCSI target. All Fibre
Channel LUN targets are exposed to iSCSI.
Note The CLI interprets the LUN identifier value as a hexadecimal value whether or not the 0x prefix is
included.
One iSCSI target cannot contain more than one Fibre Channel target.
Note This command is not supported on the Cisco MDS 9124 switch, the Cisco Fabric Switch for HP c-Class
BladeSystem, and the Cisco Fabric Switch for IBM BladeCenter.
Examples The follow example creates a static virtual target and enters ISCSI target configuration submode.
switch# config terminal
switch(config)# iscsi virtual-target name 0123456789ABDEFGHI
switch(config-iscsi-tgt)#
The following command advertises the virtual target only on the specified interface. By default, it is
advertised on all interfaces in all IPS modules.
switch(config-iscsi-tgt)# advertise interface gigabitethernet 4/1
The following command maps a virtual target node to a Fibre Channel target.
switch(config-iscsi-tgt)# pWWN 26:00:01:02:03:04:05:06
The following command enters the secondary pWWN for the virtual target node.
switch(config-iscsi-tgt)# pWWN 26:00:01:02:03:04:05:06 secondary-pwwn
66:00:01:02:03:04:05:02
Use the LUN option to map different Fibre Channel LUNs to different iSCSI virtual targets. If you have
already mapped the whole Fibre Channel target, you will not be able to use this option.
switch(config-iscsi-tgt)# pWWN 26:00:01:02:03:04:05:06 fc-lun 0 iscsi-lun 0
