SNIA Certified Storage Networking Expert (CSNE) — Question 1

What are three iSCSI configuration optimization techniques? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. Combine iSCSI data traffic with management IP traffic for maximum efficiency.
• B. Enable jumbo frames.
• C. Isolate iSCSI traffic from other IP frames.
• D. Place a firewall between initiators and targets for security.
• E. Enable flow control on switches. BCE

Correct answer:

Explanation

The correct answers are B, C, and E. Enabling jumbo frames (B) allows for larger data packets, improving throughput. Isolating iSCSI traffic (C) helps reduce latency and congestion from other traffic types. Enabling flow control (E) prevents packet loss during high traffic. Combining traffic (A) and placing a firewall (D) do not optimize performance but may introduce bottlenecks or security risks.
