reg: Clarification required on ISCSI Initiator Implementation

[Sivaraman Nainar]

Hello All,

As per the current ISCSI implementation there is only one Initiator name maintained even when there are multiple MAC and attempts are made from an UEFI system.

Is there history behind not allowing to change the Initiator Name specific to MAC ?

Thanks
Siva

Hi Siva,

The EFI_ISCSI_INITIATOR_NAME_PROTOCOL defined in UEFI specification supports only one iSCSI initiator name in UEFI system. 
In our implementation UEFI iSCSI is a single iSCSI initiator node but can maintain more than one NIC device/port.

Thanks,
Ting
