Parameters

Parameter Description

enableIPV4

Available options are:

TRUE
FALSE

enableIPV4Priority

Select this option to enable the parameter that determines the priority of accessing the network. Use the slider to select a priority between 1 and 7.

In a shared local area network (LAN) environment, such as Ethernet, many stations might contend for access to the network. Access is on a first-come, first-served basis. Two stations might try to access the network at the same time, which causes both stations to back off and wait before trying again. This process is minimized for switched Ethernet, where only one station is connected to a switch port.

Available options are:

TRUE
FALSE

This parameter is not supported in an NVMe over RoCE environment.

enableIPV4Vlan

A VLAN is a logical network that behaves like it is physically separate from other physical and virtual local area networks (LANs) supported by the same switches, the same routers, or both. Available options are:

TRUE
FALSE

This parameter is not supported in an NVMe over RoCE environment.

enableIPV6

The IPv6 address space is 128 bits. It is represented by eight 16-bit hexadecimal blocks separated by colons.

Available options are:

TRUE
FALSE

enableIPV6Priority

Select this option to enable the parameter that determines the priority of accessing the network. Use the slider to select a priority between 1 and 7.

enableIPV6Vlan

A VLAN is a logical network that behaves like it is physically separate from other physical and virtual local area networks (LANs) supported by the same switches, the same routers, or both.

Available options are:

TRUE
FALSE

This parameter is not supported in an NVMe over RoCE environment.

IPV4Address

Enter the address in this format: (0-255).(0-255).(0-255).(0-255)

IPV4ConfigurationMethod

Available options are:

static
dhcp

IPV4GatewayIP

Available options are:

TRUE
FALSE

IPV4Priority

Enter a value between 0 and 7.

This parameter is not supported in an NVMe over RoCE environment.

IPV4SubnetMask

Enter the subnet mask in this format: (0-255).(0-255).(0-255).(0-255)

IPV4VlanId

Enter a value between 1 and 4094.

This parameter is not supported in an NVMe over RoCE environment.

IPV6ConfigurationMethod

Available options are:

static
auto

IPV6HopLimit

This option configures the maximum number of hops an IPv6 packet can traverse.

The default value is 64.

IPV6LocalAddress

Enter the address is this format: (0-FFFF):(0-FFFF):(0-FFFF):(0-FFFF): (0-FFFF):(0-FFFF):(0-FFFF):(0-FFFF)

IPV6NdDetectDuplicateAddress

Enter a value between 0 and 256.

IPV6NdReachableTime

This option configures the amount of time that a remote IPv6 mode is considered reachable. Specify a value, in milliseconds, between 0 - 65535.

The default value is 30000 milliseconds.

IPV6NdRetransmitTime

This option configures the amount of time to continue to retransmit a packet to an IPv6 node. Specify a value, in milliseconds, between 0 - 65535.

The default value is 1000 milliseconds.

IPV6NdTimeOut

This option configures the timeout value for an IPv6 node. Specify a value, in milliseconds, between 0 - 65535.

The default value is 30000 milliseconds.

IPV6Priority

Enter a value between 0 and 7.

This parameter is not supported in an NVMe over RoCE environment.

IPV6RoutableAddress

Enter the address is this format: (0-FFFF):(0-FFFF):(0-FFFF):(0-FFFF): (0-FFFF):(0-FFFF):(0-FFFF):(0-FFFF)

IPV6RouterAddress

Enter the address is this format: (0-FFFF):(0-FFFF):(0-FFFF):(0-FFFF): (0-FFFF):(0-FFFF):(0-FFFF):(0-FFFF)

IPV6VlanId

Enter a value between 1 and 4094.

This parameter is not supported in an NVMe over RoCE environment.

maxFramePayload

The maxFramePayload option is shared between IPv4 and IPv6 and is the largest packet or frame that can be sent in a network. The payload portion of a standard Ethernet frame is set to 1500, and a jumbo Ethernet frame is set to 9000. When using jumbo frames, all of the devices that are in the network path should be capable of handling the larger frame size.

The default value is 1500 bytes per frame. You must enter a value between 1500 and 9000.

portSpeed

Available options are:

10
25

This option is only valid for the 25Gb/s Ethernet host interface card. Changing the speed of one port changes the speed of all four ports on the card.

Values for the portSpeed option of the iscsiHostPort parameter are in megabits per second (Mb/s).

tcpListeningPort

The listening port is the TCP port number that the controller uses to listen for iSCSI logins from host iSCSI initiators. The default listening port is 3260. You must enter 3260 or a value between 49152 and 65535.

Identifying an iSCSI host port label

You must specify a label for the host port. Follow these steps to specify the host port label:

If you do not know the port label for the iSCSI host port, run the show controller command.
In the Host interface section of the results, locate the host port you want to select.

The port label is the complete value returned for the Port field.

Enclose the entire value of the port label in both quotes and square brackets: ["portLabel"]. For example, if the port label is Ch 2, specify the iSCSI host port as follows:

iscsiHostPort[\"ch 2\"]

If you are using a Windows command line and the label contains a pipe (|), the character should be escaped (using ^); otherwise, it will be interpreted as a command. For example, if the port label is e0b|0b, specify the iSCSI host port as follows:

iscsiHostPort[\"e0b^|0b\"]

For backward compatibility, the iscsiPortNumber, enclosed by braces [ ] rather than quotes. For those controllers, valid values for iscsiPortNumber are as follows:

For controllers with integrated host ports, the numbering is 3, 4, 5, or 6.
For controllers with host ports on a host interface card only, the numbering is 1, 2, 3, or 4.

An example of the prior syntax is as follows:

iscsiHostPort[3]
