The NAS server supports the Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI). iSCSI protocol enables block-level data transfer between requesting applications and iSCSI target devices.
To use iSCSI on NAS server, one or more iSCSI Logical Units (LUs) must be defined. iSCSI LUs are blocks of storage that are accessed through iSCSI targets. An Initiator can access the LU as a “local disk” through its target. Security mechanisms can be used to prevent unauthorized access to iSCSI targets.
To create iSCSI LUs, see Adding an iSCSI logical unit.
