Help text

The iSCSI Driver provides a host with the ability to access storage through an IP network. The driver uses the iSCSI protocol to transport SCSI requests and responses over a TCP/IP network between the host (the "initiator") and "targets". Architecturally, the iSCSI driver combines with the host's TCP/IP stack, network drivers, and Network Interface Card (NIC) to provide the same functions as a SCSI or a Fibre Channel (FC) adapter driver with a Host Bus Adapter (HBA).

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called iscsi_tcp.

The userspace component needed to initialize the driver, documentation, and sample configuration files can be found here:
