CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 341

A SAN serves out storage to a company's virtual environment and provides low-level disk access. The company wants to use its existing IP network and equipment to access the virtual disks. Which of the following network connection types would BEST accomplish this task?

Answer options

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, iSCSI, as it operates over IP networks, allowing the company to leverage its existing infrastructure for storage access. InfiniBand and Fibre Channel are typically used in specialized environments and aren't designed for standard IP networks, while CIFS is used for file sharing rather than block storage.
