Binding iSCSI Target to Broadcom NX2 iSCSI Transport Name

By default, the open-iscsi daemon connects to discovered targets using
software initiator (transport name = 'tcp'). If you want to offload an iSCSI
connection onto CNIC device should explicitly change the transport
binding of the iSCSI node. This can be done using iscsiadm cli utility as
follows:

iscsiadm --mode node --targetname iqn.2004-
06.com.broadcom:tg1 \

--portal 192.168.1.100 --op=update \

--name=node.transport_name --

value=${XPORT_NAME}
