The description below applies to non Intel-based NAS models running firmware version 3.3.0 or later and Intel-based NAS models running firmware version 3.2.0 or later only.

You can create multiple LUNs for an iSCSI target. Follow the steps below to create more LUNs for an iSCSI target.

1. Click “Quick Configuration Wizard” under “Target Management”.

2. Select “iSCSI LUN only” and click “Next”.

3. Select the allocation method. Enter the name of the LUN, select the LUN directory, and specify the capacity for the LUN. Click “Next”.

4. Select the target to map the LUN to (optional step).

5. Confirm the settings and click “Next”.

6. When the LUN has been created, click “Finish” to exit the wizard.

7. The LUNs created can be mapped to and unmapped from the iSCSI target anytime. You can also unmap the LUN from a target and map it to another target.

Modify the LUN settings: LUN allocation, name, disk volume directory, etc.

Delete an iSCSI target. All the connections will be removed.

Disable an LUN. All the connections will be removed.

Enable an LUN.

Unmap the LUN from the target. Note that you must disable the LUN first before unmapping the LUN. When you click this button, the LUN will be moved to “Un-Mapped iSCSI LUN List”.

Switch LUN mapping

The description below applies to non Intel-based NAS models running firmware version 3.3.0 or later and Intel-based NAS models running firmware version 3.2.0 or later only.

Follow the steps below to switch the mapping of an iSCSI LUN.

1. Select an iSCSI LUN to unmap from an iSCSI target and click (Disable).

2. Next, click (Unmap) to unmap the LUN. The LUN will appear on the Un-Mapped iSCSI LUN List. Click (Map) to map the LUN to another target.

3. Select the target to map the LUN to and click “Apply”.

4. The LUN is mapped to the target.

After creating the iSCSI targets and LUN on the NAS, you can use the iSCSI initiator installed on your computer (Windows PC, Mac, or Linux) to connect to the iSCSI targets and LUN and use the disk volumes as the virtual drives on your computer.
