Eclipse™ 2640 SAN Router Administration and Configuration Manual
Configuring iSCSI Ports
• Login Retry timeout (in seconds) - This determines when the
initiator can attempt to log into the SAN Router after a device
is unzoned or disconnected.
— Always Retry - iSCSI initiators are not notified that the device is
no longer available. This allows the initiator to retry
indefinitely.
— Configure - Specify a value from 1 - 600 (secs). After this
timeout expires, the SAN Router notifies the initiator that the
device is no longer available.
NOTE: Change the Login Retry timeout to Always Retry for Windows
environments. This will ensure that Windows iSCSI initiators
automatically re-login. Otherwise initiators will only re-try logins for
the specified time value set. This parameter has no effect on HP/UX.
• First Burst Length (KB) - The initiator and target negotiate
maximum iSCSI data payload in bytes in a data-in or a
solicited data-out iSCSI sequence. The default is 64 KB. Other
values are typically 8KB, 128KB, and 256KB.
• Max Burst Length (KB) - The initiator and target negotiate
maximum iSCSI data payload in bytes in a data-in or a
solicited data-out iSCSI sequence. The default is 256KB. Other
values are typically 8KB, 64KB, and 128KB.
• Max Rcv Data Segment Length (KB) - The initiator or target
declares the maximum data segment length in bytes it can
receive in an iSCSI PDU. The default is 64 KB. Other values are
8KB, 128KB, and 256KB.
