• The Success Rate field displays the ping command's success rate. If the host responds to each

TIP:

You can issue a ping command from an iSCSI port to an iSNS server. To verify connectivity

between an iSNS server and the array, issue a ping command to the iSNS server. If the

iSNS responds to the ping command, the iSNS server and array can communicate with

each other.
