Remote Connections
An FC or iSCSI interface is available for a remote connection.
When a remote connection is used, change the host interface port mode setting from "CA" to "RA".
For remote connections, different types of interfaces (FC, iSCSI 10Gbit/s (10GBASE-SR), iSCSI
10Gbit/s (10GBASE-CR), iSCSI 10Gbit/s (10GBASE-T), iSCSI 1Gbit/s) cannot exist together on a
REC path (connection between a local ETERNUS DX/AF and a remote ETERNUS DX/AF).
When different types of remote interfaces exist in the same ETERNUS DX/AF, make sure to use
the same type of interface for each REC path. For example, the following configuration is not
supported because different types of interfaces (FC and iSCSI) exist together on a REC path.

Interfaces Are Installed in the Same ETERNUS DX/AF)

The following configuration is supported because the same type of interface is used for each
REC path.
