Hello,

I am working with comstar (stmfadm) and its associated iscsi target (itadm):

The machine has 2 physical interfaces on the storage network. The IP addresses 
assigned to those interfaces are from the same subnet (!).

e1000g0 192.168.51.10/24 mac address A
e1000g1 192.168.51.11/24 mac address B


If a client (from 51.100) connects with 51.11 the client's destination mac 
address is B (which makes sense since it is talking to that interface on the 
target). The responses, however, come out of e1000g0 due to 
http://blogs.sun.com/carlson/entry/packets_out_of_the_wrong.

What I think the iscsi target port component of comstar should do is: it should 
note the incoming interface of a packet on the socket it is listening via 
IP_RECVIF and set IP IP_BOUND_IF to that interface.

I understand that there are things like MPIP and trunking however, when 
implementing real MPIO those technologies are not the correct option.

If anybody has any idea how to force this via the suggested IP Filter's 
fastroute/to path that would be great.

Steffen
