Access controls and IP addressses
Could someone clarify something for me, do the access controls limit access to a volume from the specified IP address only, or does it allow access from any IP address from a computer that also includes the specified IP address...
An example of what I mean...
I have a volume1, which has a access control record of 192.168.1.10, and no others.
I have a server with two isci connections to the switch, 192.168.1.10 and 192.168.1.11
When I look at the current connections to the volume it shows both the IP addresses as having connections - but I would like only one of the to connect.
No Events found!

They are in separate pools.

Ok thanks, that clears that up at least.
The iscsi traggic is separated, what I am trying to accomplish is connecting to a 10gb san and 1gb san that are within the same group, but i want the 10gb san to connect with the 10gb server nics and the 1gb san to connect to the 1gb server nics.

Hi yes I do have HIT installed. When you say creates addional entries - where are these created as the group manager interface only shows the access entries I created.
It's not that i don't want there to be multiple connections, I just want to control which nics connect to which volumes. Just seems a bit odd to have the ability to specify exact IP addresses if it just goes ahead and allows others...

Thanks yeah i'm familiar with that and previous ones, but it assumes that you're wanting to connect to the 1gb san from a 1gb server and the 10gb san from a 10gb server.
What I'd like to to is connect to both from one server. So given I don't want to overload the ports on the 1gb san I'd like to connect the 1gb to the 1gb and the 10gb to the 10gb.
It seemed like it should be a fairly straightforward thing to do...I thought!

Thanks for your help Don.

No, the 10gb san is in addition to several 1gb sans, so it'll be some time before they can all be replaced with 10gb.
I guess I could still move the 10gb unit into it's own group and change the subnets and do it that way.
Not ideal but may be the only way.
