iSCSI
Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI)
is an interconnect protocol used to
establish and manage a connection between a computer (initiator) and a storage device
(target). It does this by using a connection through TCP port 3260, which allows it to be
used over a LAN, a WAN, or the Internet. Each initiator is identified by its iSCSI Qualified
Name (iqn), and it is used to establish its connection to an iSCSI target.
