HP StorageWorks 1510i Modular Smart Array iSCSI concepts and deployment guide (431338-002, July 2008)

Portal Groups — a set of network portals within a network entity that share network connections and can
collectively coordinate an iSCSI session.
Target Portal Group Although iSCSI initiators and iSCSI targets use portal groups to coordinate iSCSI
sessions, only target portal groups are used directly in the iSCSI protocol.
Target Portal Group Tag (TPGT) — iSCSI portal groups that are associated with target nodes are identied
by a numerical target portal group tag ranging from 0 to 65535.
Target Session Identifying Handle (TSIH) a tag generated by an iSCSI target to identify an iSCSI
sessionwithaspecic iSCSI initiator. The TSIH is generated during session establishment.
