Abstract
This document provides examples of the Internet Small Computer
Systems Interface (iSCSI; or SCSI over TCP) name construction and
discussion of discovery of iSCSI resources (targets) by iSCSI
initiators. This document complements the iSCSI protocol document.
Flexibility is the key guiding principle behind this document. That
is, an effort has been made to satisfy the needs of both small
isolated environments, as well as large environments requiring
secure/scalable solutions.
