Thanks,
I suggest that if the spec is ever revised
that there is a statement saying that the target portal group tag does not need
to be reported when a target name is not given (ala a discovery session).

Eddy,
I
think Marjorie is right - you SHOULD report TargetPortalGroup during a normal
session to enable initiators to sense a configuration change if there was one.
I
will check the text for the typo - thanks - and wording.
I
think you may ignore it for discovery sessions.
Regards,
Julo

Julian,
Can you comment on this?
I would like to not have
to report the TargetPortalGroupTag during a discovery session.

The definition of SSID
says this:
The TargetPortalGroupTag key must also be returned
the target as a confimation (typo) during
connection establishment.

I think the wording in
the spec says TargetPortalGroupTag should
be included in the Login response. It seems that a discovery session
where multiple targets are being serviced by the same IP address is a case
where TargetPortalGroupTag need not be reported? The intent behind
reporting TargetPortalGroupTag is directed towards Full Feature Sessions so
that the initiator can verify that it's discovery information is still valid.

I have a question regarding the determination of the
Target Portal Group Tag during a discovery session when the TargetName is not
supplied.
The TargetPortalGroupTag must be reported in the
first Login Response for all session types. But without the TargetName, how
does the network entity determine which Target Portal Group Tag to report if
two different targets in the network entity are using the same IP Address/TCP
Port?
