The following table describes the nonconfigurable iSCSI Sessions Detailed information.
Spanning Tree Protocol
The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) provides a tree topology for any arrangement of bridges. 
STP also provides one path between end stations on a network, eliminating loops. Spanning 
tree versions supported include Common STP, Multiple STP, and Rapid STP.
Classic STP provides a single path between end stations, avoiding and eliminating loops. For 
information on configuring Common STP, see 
236.
Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) supports multiple instances of Spanning Tree to 
efficiently channel VLAN traffic over different interfaces. Each instance of the Spanning Tree 
behaves in the manner specified in IEEE 802.1w, Rapid Spanning Tree (RSTP), with slight 
modifications in the working but not the end effect (chief among the effects, is the rapid 
transitioning of the port to Forwarding). The difference between the RSTP and the traditional 
STP (IEEE 802.1D) is the ability to configure and recognize full-duplex connectivity and ports 
which are connected to end stations, resulting in rapid transitioning of the port to Forwarding 
state and the suppression of Topology Change Notification. These features are represented 
by the parameters pointtopoint and edgeport. MSTP is compatible to both RSTP and STP. It 
behaves appropriately to STP and RSTP bridges. A MSTP bridge can be configured to 
behave entirely as a RSTP bridge or a STP bridge.
Table 84.  iSCSI Sessions Detailed 
 
Field
Description
Session Index
The list of session indices. 
The rest of the fields on this screen correspond to the currently selected Session Index.
Target Name
The target’s name.
Initiator Name
The initiator’s name.
Up Time
The time elapsed since the creation of the current session.
Time for Aging Out (in Seconds)
The time left for the current session to expire in seconds.
Initiator Session ID (ISID)
The unique identifier an initiator assigns to its session endpoint which, 
when combined with the iSCSI initiator name, provides a unique name 
for the iSCSI initiator port.
Initiator IP Address
The initiator’s IP address.
Initiator TCP Port
The initiator’s TCP port number of one of the connections between the 
target and initiator.
Target IP Address
The IP address of the target.
Target TCP Port
The target’s TCP port number of one of the connections between the 
target and initiator.
