Type: Automated Test

Overview

The iSCSI Redirection test verifies that a host-bus adapter (HBA) properly handles the target device's capability to redirect the connection to a different IP address or port.

Details

This test implements a simple iSCSI target. The test performs a logon to this target by using the HBA under test. The target, when it receives the first logon packet, will redirect the HBA to connect to the target by using a different location.

The test has three different variations that use different redirection mechanisms:

  • Redirection to a new IP address

  • Redirection to a new IP address and new port

  • Redirection to the same IP address with a new port

Windows Logo Program: STORAGE-0002 Storage host controllers and adapters comply with industry standards and Windows requirements

Additional Information: Test: The iSCSI Redirection test checks that the HBA sends an initial logon request PDU to the test target at the redirection address. Apply: The test uses the LoginIScsiTarget routine to connect to the test target. Expect: The HBA sends an iSCSI logon request PDU to the test target address specified in the initial logon request PDU.

101 Bit one of the first byte in a login request PDU must be set to one.

Bit one of the first byte must be set to one.

102 The current stage field of the initial login PDU must be set to indicate either the security negotiation phase or the operational negotiation stage.

Test Assertion GUID: 3c74e227-c4ef-11da-94f4-00123f3a6b60

Windows Logo Program: STORAGE-0002 Storage host controllers and adapters comply with industry standards and Windows requirements

Additional Information: Test: The iSCSI Redirection test checks that the HBA sets the current stage field of the initial logon request PDU correctly. Apply: The test uses the LoginIScsiTarget routine to connect to the test target. Expect: The HBA sends an iSCSI logon request PDU to the test target.

Windows Logo Program: STORAGE-0002 Storage host controllers and adapters comply with industry standards and Windows requirements

Additional Information: Test: The iSCSI Redirection test checks whether the transit bit is set in the initial logon request. If the bit is set in the initial request, the next stage field of the PDU must be valid and greater than the current stage field. This check is not made if the T (transit) bit is not set because the next stage field is irrelevant under this circumstance. Apply: The test uses the LoginIScsiTarget routine to connect to the test target. Expect: The HBA sends an iSCSI logon request PDU to the test target address. If the T bit is set, the next stage field must be valid and greater than the current stage. If the current stage is set to security negotiation (0x00), then the next stage must be set to either logon operation negotiation (0x01), or full feature phase (0x03). If the current stage is set to logon operation negotiation, then the only valid value is the full feature phase.

104 The Version-min field of the initial login request PDU must be set to 0x00.

Additional Information: Test: The iSCSI Redirection test validates that the initial logon packet contains the required TargetName key. Apply: The test uses the LoginIScsiTarget routine to connect to the test target. Expect: The HBA sends an iSCSI logon request PDU to the test target address. The data segment contains a TargetName = key. There must be only one TargetName key.

112 The TargetName key value must equal the target name specified using the LoginIScsiTarget API.
