All,

   The field consists of an UTF-8[20] string and has the following
   composition:

           <servername> ":" <port> ":" <LUN> ":" <targetname>

Would it be possible to adopt language explaining that servername and
targetname could be dotted decimal expansions of the IP address in place of
the name.  DNS code for a bootstrap adds complexity.  It would make it
easier if perhaps some symbols could be used to indicate such an expansion
has been made such as .IP6.INT or .IP4.INT suffix where the bytes are in
reverse order with no embedded spaces.
