Hi,

I am new to iSCSI protocol and gearing up.
Is this the right mailing list to ask questions related to  iSCSI protocol?

if yes,

1.  iSCSI target is identified by the network portal (IP + port).
So once the iSCSI target is identified by the network portal and Login to it is successful, why do we need to ask for SendTargets command?
TargetName and TargetAddress returned are immaterial (because we already know the target address to which we have logged-in), unless there are multiple addresses for them and failover is required used.
Or it is used for communicating different TCP port on which initiators can send TUR, Inquiry, Read, Write commands?

What is the expected information from the target in response to SendTargets command?

Regards,
Parav Pandit
