LUN Groups and Access Rights
When you create a LUN, the LUN is unassigned. To access your storage system from an
iSCSI-attached device, you must create a LUN group and assign one or more LUNs to the
LUN group.
LUN groups allow you to organize LUNs and manage access rights to LUN groups. Access
rights are either open or granted through internal CHAP authentication.
Access rights apply
to LUN groups, not to individual LUNs. You can easily assign a LUN to a LUN group or move
a LUN from one LUN group to another LUN group.
Each LUN group has an iSCSI target address (for example,
iqn.1994-1
1.com.netgear:f2f2fdd4) that allows iSCSI clients to access the LUN group. For
more information, see Manage Access Rights for LUN Groups on page 108. Each
ReadyNAS supports a maximum of 256 iSCSI targets.

To create a LUN group:
1. Select iSCSI.
The iSCSI screen displays the LUNs and LUN groups that you created.

To create a LUN group, click the New Group button in the upper right of the screen.
The New LUN Group pop-up screen displays.
