[openib-general] iSER details
Hi, Can anyone tell me where can I find the specifications of iSER protocol on Infiniband. I could not find any document which provides specification specially according to Infiniband, all the doc were on iWarp. If anyone can guide me in this Thanks in advance Mohit ___ openib-general mailing list openib-general@openib.org http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general

If anyone can guide me in this There are 2 relevant I-Ds: iSCSI Extensions for RDMA Specification http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ips-iser-05.txt and Generalization of iSER for InfiniBand and other Network Protocols http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-hufferd-iser-ib-01.txt At the last IETF IPS WG meeting in Paris, the sense of the meeting was: Sense of room: Want to proceed towards applying these changes (after careful review and WG rough consensus) to the approved iSER draft so that there is one draft that is broadly applicable rather than the current iSER draft plus a draft that modifies that draft to broaden it. so these changes for IB will be folded into an upcoming version of the iSER I-D. -- Hal ___ openib-general mailing list openib-general@openib.org http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general

If anyone can guide me in this There are 2 relevant I-Ds: iSCSI Extensions for RDMA Specification http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ips-iser-05.txt As Hal indicate the iSER-05 IETF draft already incorporates InfiniBand, and already passed last call status. There aren't many differenced between IB and iWarp, IBTA is also working on the IP address mapping over InfiniBand that will be leveraged by iSER/IB and NFS/RDMA, and few other clarifications/issues. Note one key difference in the IETF draft is that IB negotiate the Login over the RC connection, where in iWarp its over a TCP connection (and than transition to RDMA RC). Some more detailed material can be found on http://www.haifa.il.ibm.com/satran/ips/iSER-in-an-IB-network-V9.pdf It's a little old but many sections are still relevant Yaron ___ openib-general mailing list openib-general@openib.org http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
