| **Internet Small Computer System Interface** is a transport layer protocol that describes how Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) packets should be transported over a TCP/IP network. iSCSI, which stands for Internet Small Computer System Interface, works on top of the Transport Control Protocol (TCP) and allows the SCSI command to be sent end-to-end over local-area networks (LANs), wide-area networks (WANs) or the internet. IBM developed iSCSI as a proof of concept in 1998 and presented the first draft of the iSCSI standard to the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) in 2000. The protocol was ratified in 2003. | **Internet Small Computer System Interface** is a transport layer protocol that describes how Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) packets should be transported over a TCP/IP network. iSCSI, which stands for Internet Small Computer System Interface, works on top of the Transport Control Protocol (TCP) and allows the SCSI command to be sent end-to-end over local-area networks (LANs), wide-area networks (WANs) or the internet.
