Supported Class of Service - A frame delivery scheme exhibiting a set of delivery characteristics
and attributes. There are three classes of service.
Class 1 provides a dedicated connection between a pair of ports with confirmed delivery or

Class 2 provides a frame switched service with confirmed delivery or notification of non-
delivery.

delivery or non-delivery.

Viewing iSCSI Port Information
When you select an iSCSI port from the discovery-tree, the iSCSI Port Info tab contains general
attributes associated with the selected iSCSI adapter. You can also change the iSCSI port’s TCP/IP
configuration. See “Modifying TCP/IP iSCSI Port Configuration” on page 126 for more information. If the
adapter supports vNIC, vNIC data is also displayed.
To view iSCSI port information:
1. Select Host or Fabric view.
2. Select an iSCSI port in the discovery-tree.
Note: The checkbox does not appear if the adapter does not support PFC throttle.
Note: No iSCSI port information is displayed by the CIM provider on any version of VMware
ESX.
Note: vNIC is supported only on IBM virtual fabric adapters. For specific information as to
whether it is supported on a specific adapter, see the release notes that are available
on the IBM adapter pages on the Emulex website.
