Siva,

iSCSI targets can be configured to listen on any TCP port.
Changing the UEFI iSCSI Client's TargetPort min/max will effectively 
prevent the user from communicating with the targets configured to 
listen on ports outside that range (in your example: below 1024).
I do not see a reason behind removing that flexibility. If user sets 
iSCSI target and client ports to values shared by other services, it is 
that user's mistake.

Thanks,
Maciej
