The /dev/etherd/interfaces special file is obsoleted by the

aoe_iflist boot option and module option (and its sysfs entry

described in the next section).

"echo eth2 eth4 > /dev/etherd/interfaces" tells the aoe driver to

limit ATA over Ethernet traffic to eth2 and eth4. AoE traffic from
|

untrusted networks should be ignored as a matter of security.

Use /sys/module/aoe/parameters/aoe_iflist (or better, the driver
|
||||
option discussed below) instead of /dev/etherd/interfaces to limit
|
||||
AoE traffic to the network interfaces in the given
|
||||
whitespace-separated list. Unlike the old character device, the
|
||||
sysfs entry can be read from as well as written to.
|
||||
|
||||
It's helpful to trigger discovery after setting the list of allowed
|
||||
interfaces. If your distro provides an aoe-discover script, you can
|
||||
use that. Otherwise, you can directly use the /dev/etherd/discover
|
||||
file described above.
|
||||
|
||||
DRIVER OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
There is a boot option for the built-in aoe driver and a
|
||||
corresponding module parameter, aoe_iflist. Without this option,
|
||||
all network interfaces may be used for ATA over Ethernet. Here is a
|
||||
usage example for the module parameter.
