One of the details of iSCSI is that the iSCSI Qualified Name (IQN) has date stamp. So if you own the domain example.com, in your connection string you would have:
* "iqn"
* date (yyyy-mm) that the naming authority took ownership of the domain
* reversed domain name of the authority, e.g., "com.example"
See:
* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISCSI#Addressing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISCSI#Addressing
* https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3720#section-3.2.6.3.1 https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3720#section-3.2.6....
This way if the 'naming authority' (example.com) changes hands, the old connection handle is invalidated.
- azinman2 5y agoThat's really smart! It's basically like a checksum on a domain. Surprised this isn't more common.
