Hi Jiaxin,

Thanks for your support.

I've created a ticket in Bugzilla, and below are the details
https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=732

Yeah we should  grayout the Initiator info to indicate it's un-configurable.

In case of IPv6

1.       Before trying for ISCSI connection(with IPv6 attempt), we'll configure 
the IP manually.

2.       While trying for ISCSI Connection(with IPv6 attempt), It may use the 
above Configured IP or link local address.

3.       Can we display the whatever IP used for ISCSI connection(with IPv6 
attempt) as Initiator IP In IP6 attempt Page? , So that we can know what 
Initiator IP used for ISCSI connection.


Could you please let me know if anything is wrong.

Thanks,
Karunakar

Hi Karunakar,

We agree to add this feature for the Initiator info of IPv4 when DHCP enabled. 
Can you report it on Bugzilla first?

To achieve that,  we can grayout the Initiator IP/Subnet/Gateway if Initiator 
DHCP enabled to indicate it's un-configurable. For IPv6, since iSCSI only 
request the target info from DHCP server, so, it's unnecessary to display the 
info as IPv4.

Thanks,
Jiaxin

Hello All,

We have a requirement to display Initiator IP in ISCSI Configuration Page when 
Initiator info is enabled for DHCP, find detailed description below.


1.       Add an Attempt with Initiator info Enabled for DHCP

2.       Save changes

3.       On next reboot, Previously added ISCSI attempt will be tried and ISCSI 
DHCP server will assign an IP to the client (Initiator IP).

4.       It is better to display Initiator IP in same attempt Page like below



Ex:- Initiator IP : 192.168.0.5         // DHCP Process was success

         Initiator IP : 0.0.0.0                 // DHCP process failed

Could you please provide your comments to support this feature?

Thanks,
Karunakar
