Figure 7-4. Identity C’s iSCSI Initiator

In Figure 7-4, there is only one iSCSI initiator in Identity C: WWUI10.

Identities are coupled with iSCSI targets to limit iSCSI initiator access to a
target’s underlying volumes. An identity can be used with more than one
target and each target can have more than one identity.
