for that adapter. These error messages are to notify the administrator of configuration issues that need to be
addressed, but do not affect the tagging or flow of iSCSI traffic for that team, unless it explicitly states that the
TC Filter has been removed.
Linux Configuration
In the case of Open Source distributions, virtually all distributions include support for an Open iSCSI Software
Initiator and Intel® Ethernet adapters will support them. Please consult your distribution documentation for
additional configuration details on their particular Open iSCSI initiator.
Intel® 82599 and X540-based adapters support iSCSI within a Data Center Bridging cloud. Used in
conjunction with switches and targets that support the iSCSI/DCB application TLV, this solution can provide
guaranteed minimum bandwidth for iSCSI traffic between the host and target. This solution enables storage
administrators to segment iSCSI traffic from LAN traffic, similar to how they can currently segment FCoE
from LAN traffic. Previously, iSCSI traffic within a DCB supported environment was treated as LAN traffic by
switch vendors. Please consult your switch and target vendors to ensure that they support the iSCSI/DCB
application TLV.
