iSNS client service configuration
The internet storage name service (iSNS) server facilitates the automatic discovery and manages
access control of iSCSI VTs on a TCP/IP network.
iSNS clients initiate transactions with iSNS servers using the iSNS protocol, register available iSCSI
VTs, download information about other registered clients (such as iSCSI initiators), and receive
notification of events that occur in the DDs.
