Dell PowerVault MD32xxi Configuration Guide for VMware ESX4.1 Server Software

In this example we see that iSCSI1 is vmk0, iSCSI2 is vmk1, iSCSI3 is vmk2 and iSCSI4 is vmk3. This is also information that we need to note.

We can also see this in the CLI by using the following command:

esxcfg-vmknic –l

The output will look similar to this:

Interface	Port Group/DVPort	IP Family IP Address
Netmask	Broadcast	MAC Address MTU TSO MSS
Enabled Type
