[Users] iSCSI multipath with EqualLogic SAN

[Alex Leonhardt]

I think you should have p1p2 on a different network ;) .. same with the 
san, one NIC should/could be on a different network (or probably for 
you, the 2nd head should be in a different network?) ... i've got that 
working OK with a iSCSI target service on centos and multipath does 
everything as expected ..
