This page load balances the client device’s iSCSI connection to the K2 SAN.
The iSCSI adapters on your K2 Media Server or servers are listed here as iSCSI
targets.

On redundant systems, if you have multiple client devices, they should be
balanced between A and B.

For pre-defined K2 SAN levels, K2Config determines the iSCSI target to which
each client device subscribes, based on the bandwidth values that you enter.
This enforces policies by which each client device has sufficient bandwidth for
its intended use and no individual iSCSI target is oversubscribed.

For custom K2 SANs (Level 4 or 40), qualified system designers can view
subnets to help assign iSCSI targets.
