PROXYING MULTIPLE TARGETS AS A VIRTUAL TARGET USING IDENTIFIER RANGES

摘要

A gateway includes a Fibre Channel ("FC") port configured to couple to multiple FC targets, and an iSCSI port configured to couple to an iSCSI initiator. The iSCSI port is configured to facilitate communication between the FC targets and the iSCSI initiator, and proxy the multiple FC targets as a virtual iSCSI target. The iSCSI port is also configured to divide the Logical Unit Number ("LUN") range into a plurality of subdivided LUN ranges, and associate the FC targets with the subdivided LUN ranges.
