6) To enable use of the Lmhosts file to resolve remote NetBIOS names, select Enable LMHOSTS
lookup.
7) To specify the location of the file that you want to import into the Lmhosts file, select Import
LMHOSTS and then select the file in the Open dialog box
8) Enable or disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP.
If using Windows 2008 Core Version
On a server running Windows 2008 Core version, use the netsh interface command to configure the
iSCSI ports on the host server.
Linux Host Setup
If you are using a Linux host network, the following section provides a framework for preparing your
network for iSCSI.
To set up a Linux host network, you must configure the IP address and netmask of each iSCSI port
connected to the .The specific steps depend on whether you are configuring TCP/IP using Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) or configuring TCP/IP using a static IP address.
Network Configuration Guidelines
NOTE:
The server IP addresses must be configured for network communication to the same IP subnet as the iSCSI
to SAS bridge management and iSCSI ports.
Configuring TCP/IP on Linux using DHCP (root users only)
1) Edit the /etc/sysconfig/network file as follows:
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=mymachine.mycompany.com
2) Edit the configuration file for the connection you want to configure, either
/etc/sysconfig/networkscripts/ifcfg-ethX (for RHEL) or /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-id-
XX:XX:XX:XX:XX (for SUSE). BOOTPROTO=dhcp
Also, verify that an IP address and netmask are not defined.
3) Restart network services using the following command:
/etc/init.d/network restart
Configuring TCP/IP on Linux using a Static IP address (root users only)
1) Edit the /etc/sysconfig/network file as follows:
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=mymachine.mycompany.com
GATEWAY=255.255.255.0
2) Edit the configuration file for the connection you want to configure, either
/etc/sysconfig/networkscripts/ifcfg-ethX (for RHEL) or /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-id-
XX:XX:XX:XX:XX (for SUSE).
BOOTPROTO=static
BROADCAST=192.168.1.255
IPADDR=192.168.1.100
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.1.0
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
HWADDR=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
3) Restart network services using the following command:
/etc/init.d/network restart
