  Description     : driver and daemon for using iSCSI on Linux

The Linux iSCSI driver acts as an iSCSI protocol initiator to
transport SCSI requests and responses over an IP network between the
client and an iSCSI-enabled target device such as a Cisco SN 5428-2
storage router. The iSCSI protocol is an IETF-defined protocol for IP
storage. For more information about the iSCSI protocol, refer to
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3720.txt.

Architecturally, the iSCSI driver combines with the client TCP/IP
stack, network drivers, and NICs to provide the same functions as a
SCSI adapter driver with an HBA.
