Is this issue closed? I'm waiting for the new draft in order to know how to implement that function.

You are not assuming something wrong, this has been overlooked in the current MIB draft. iSCSIPortal table is OK, but iSCSITargetPortal should be indexed by iSCSINodeIndex and iscsiIntrPortalAttributesTable should be deleted as there is no such thing as an initiator portal group tag. Or alternatively, this table should just be genericly named (iSCSIPortalGroupTable) and indexed by iscsiNodeIndex, and then an initiator implementation can decide if they want to populate entries with a conceptual portal group tag.

What is the status of this draft? Can we update this for the Vienna IETF draft?

Subject: question about iscsiTgtPortalAttributesTable

Hi,

     I have question about the IETF-ISCSI-DRAFT-MIB.

Question:

   Currently iscsiTgtPortalAttributesTable is indexed by the iSCSIInstIndex and PortalIndex.

   But there is no information about the target node to which it is associated with. According to ISCSI Spec

   I can have target network portal that can belongs to multiple target portal groups as long as these

   target portal groups belong to different target nodes.

    How do I add network portal with ( IP : 10.1.1.10 : port 8070) to

                 iSCSI Instance = 1, TagetNode = 1, Tag = 2

      and to iSCSIInstance = 1 TargetNode = 2, Tag = 3 ?

In the current Draft MIB there is no association of Network portal with TargetNode.

Is this information missing in the DRAFT MIB or am I assuming something wrong?

Sorry for sending direct mail to you.

Please let me know if there is reflector ( forum) to post this type of questions.

Thanks

Venkat
