[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] Re: iSCSI: Canonical TargetsHow about this instead: 2. A discovery target MUST be accessible on the default tcp port on each IP address on which an iSCSI implementation is listening for iSCSI connections. This default tcp port will often be the IANA-assigned TCP port for iSCSI. If the implementation is listening on multiple TCP ports, the discovery target MAY be accessible on each TCP port.
