To map remote FC devices to local SAN:
1. If the remote router is not already associated with a local router, use either
the Add Remote Router wizard (see the iSR6142 Router Manager User's
Guide) or the CLI command remotepeer add (see the iSR6142 Router
CLI User's Guide) to associate the two routers with each other.
2. Use the Map Remote Initiator/Target wizard (see the iSR6142 Router
Manager User's Guide) or the CLI remotemap add command (see the
iSR6142 Router CLI User's Guide) to create the initiator to target mapping.
