Discovery of iSCSI Storage Devices

An iSCSI device can have many portals. Each portal can have remote targets
associated with it. In order for the V-Switch to recognize a portal’s remote
targets, you must define the IP Address of the iSCSI portal. Once defined, the
V-Switch will automatically receive the list of remote targets attached to the
portal.
