NetWare iSCSI includes several important features to help you create and manage a low-cost NetWare SAN:
Support for standard TCP/IP networks using commodity Ethernet hardware.
LDAP and directory-enabled NetWare iSCSI functions for enhanced disk access control.
Single point of administration through the browser-based Novell Remote Manager. This lets you remotely manage your iSCSI SAN.
Support for Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) authentication for initiator identity verification.
Support for the iSCSI draft specification (Ratified Standard Draft 20).
Interoperability with industry standard iSCSI storage servers or targets, including Cisco*, Network Appliance, and Adaptec*.
Easy installation and configuration, especially compared to the complexity involved in installing and configuring a fibre channel SAN.
