Re: iSCSI Naming and Discovery Requirements Document

I will clarify list entry 2, and also make it the same as what is contained
in list entry 6, in the
next version of the document. Thanks for pointing this out.

In "3. Naming and Discovery Requirements" list entry 2) contains
the following sentence:

"The iSCSI service delivery port address is made up of IP address
and  port number."

Later, in or after list entry 6) the following appears:

"The initiator can access the target using the following:
 i) IP name or IP address
        +
 ii) TCP port number
        +
 iii) [Target WWUI  or (Target WWUI and path)]"

Is the "port number" described in list entry 2) the same as the
"TCP port number" described in list entry 6)?

If they are the same, I suggest that list entry 2) needs to be
clarified because I read it to indicate that multiple hardware
ports might be used to access a single IP address.

Thanks.
