+@subsection iSCSI LUNs
+
+iSCSI is a popular protocol used to access SCSI devices across a computer
+network.
+
+There are two different ways iSCSI devices can be used by QEMU.
+
+The first method is to mount the iSCSI LUN on the host, and make it appear as
+any other ordinary SCSI device on the host and then to access this device as a
+/dev/sd device from QEMU. How to do this differs between host OSes.
+
+The second method involves using the iSCSI initiator that is built into
+QEMU. This provides a mechanism that works the same way regardless of which
+host OS you are running QEMU on. This section will describe this second method
+of using iSCSI together with QEMU.
+
+In QEMU, iSCSI devices are described using special iSCSI URLs
+
+@example
+URL syntax:
+iscsi://[<username>[%<password>]@@]<host>[:<port>]/<target-iqn-name>/<lun>
+@end example
+
+Username and password are optional and only used if your target is set up
+using CHAP authentication for access control.
+Alternatively the username and password can also be set via environment
+variables to have these not show up in the process list
+
+@example
+export LIBISCSI_CHAP_USERNAME=<username>
+export LIBISCSI_CHAP_PASSWORD=<password>
+iscsi://<host>/<target-iqn-name>/<lun>
+@end example
+
+Howto set up a simple iSCSI target on loopback and accessing it via QEMU:
+@example
+This example shows how to set up an iSCSI target with one CDROM and one DISK
+using the Linux STGT software target. This target is available on Red Hat based
+systems as the package 'scsi-target-utils'.
