Re: iSCSI: large keys during login?

Hello,

I believe the other point was the use of the F bit in Text 
requests/responses.  In Login Text requests/responses, the same bit 
position is known as the T bit and is defined as the "Transition" to next 
stage indicator.

Does this mean that the T bit in login request/responses should be 
interpreted in the same way as the F bit in text requests/responses?

If this is the case, is this dual meaning of the T bit desirable?  At the 
least, it would be useful for the spec to explicitly state the dual usage 
to remove any ambiguity.
