UEFI iSCSI Settings
You can use the iSCSI Settings screen to modify iSCSI device settings. The iSCSI Settings option is available only in the UEFI
boot mode. BIOS does not control network settings in the BIOS boot mode. For the BIOS boot mode, the option ROM of the
network controller handles the network settings.
