Hi Prakash,

Thank you for addressing the issues raised in the Gen-ART review. The changes made on issues 2 and 3 are fine, however, one clarification is still needed regarding the first issue. See below (agreed stuff deleted).

[[DR]] 'the new features are required' means that the MIB support MUST be updated accordingly when the iSCSI updates are deployed? In other words, would an RFC 4544 - based implementation break, or it will continue to work (with functional limitations) until the updated MIB version is introduced? 

Thanks and Regards,

Dan
