Bosch Security Cameras writing to iSCSI QNAP
I new in this technology and my english is not good, I will try to explain myself in the best possible way.
Here we go...
I have the following scenario..
1 QNAP TS-131p // Firm: 4.3.6.0979
1 CAM Bosch NDN-50022-A3 // Firm: 6.23.0003
1 CAM Bosch NUC-51022-F2 // Firm: 6.23.0003
Configuration Manager v05.43.0238.0
The problem is, when I will try tu conect the Bosch camera with ISCSI in the QNAP, I received the error: the ISCSI device is password protected...
I think the correct password is the same I use to acces to QNAP system, i hope someone can give me some way to resolve this problem or maybe I made some wrong in the configurations
Regards in advance

Re: Bosch Security Cameras writing to iSCSI QNAP
don't think ISCSI is a good idea, you would need two LUN's for your two cameras and in order to access your footage the LUNs need to be unmounted from your cameras
no SMB/NFS/FTP option on those cams ?

Re: Bosch Security Cameras writing to iSCSI QNAP
you have to create two targets for the cameras
might be better to go with a nvr system (qnap has qvr or surveilance station)

Re: Bosch Security Cameras writing to iSCSI QNAP
Why two LUNs? Completely unnecessary. I don't think you understand ISCSI.
One PC/server presents a share say E:\ to cameras.
One LUN/formatted volume and two folders
Anyway none of this makes sense, so how will the cameras connect to the host, they have to support some file protocol.

Re: Bosch Security Cameras writing to iSCSI QNAP
no .. I do grasp iscsi block storage
the cameras (i quickly skimmed the manual) have an iscsi initiator interface in their config
but if two cameras access the same iscsi target ..would that reak havok on the target ?
the cameras apparently only support
sd recording
iscsi recording
onvif access

Interesting, I never knew some cameras had ISCSI initiators!
Did Op format the LUN? I see format is not ticked.
Amazed anyone would try ISCSI on TS-131P!

Re: Bosch Security Cameras writing to iSCSI QNAP
thats ok ... I deep down knew you were joking (lets go with that )
don't know if op formatted the luns...op?
maybe there is a bosh software/hardware solution that can mount those iscsi lun safely to read them ? ..no idea

jmerlos887,
There should be no ISCSI password unless you set one via CHAP.
Can you connect to any other initiator? Windows PC say?

The problem was that.
I was putting a password but it was not necessary as you tell me
I thank you very much everybody
