[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] iSCSI: Questions regarding text parameter 'Reject' and 'Irrelevant'usageGreetings, I have a few questions regarding the wording as per iSCSI-v12 4.2 Text Mode Negotiation: "An offer of a value not admissible MAY be answered with the constant "Reject". The selection of a value not admissible under the selection rules is considered a negotiation failure and is handled accordingly." 1. Is a responder allowed to return an admissable value (its default value for the key) instead of using the 'Reject' constant? 2. Which status detail/code in the login response is preferred when 'Reject' is used? "If a specific key is not relevant for the current negotiation, the responder may answer with the constant "Irrelevant" for all types of negotiation. However the negotiation is not considered as failed if the response is Irrelevant." 1. In the case that the initiator sends the "BidiInitialR2T" key (for ex.). Being an Leading Only key, what should happen when it is received during text negotiation of a 2nd connection in a session? Which constant should be returned to the orginator, and is this enough for negotiation to fail? 2. Another question along the same lines, whats the proper action that should be taken when a Initial Only key is used during FFP? How about initiator only keys orginating from the target? Which is the correct constant to use in these situations. Thanks for your time, Nicholas A. Bellinger
