# Class CIM_iSCSISession
extends CIM_NetworkPipe

iSCSISession is a network pipe between an initiator and target SCSIProtocolEndpoints. An iSCSISession is composed of one or more TCP connections which MUST be selected from a SystemSpecificCollection representing an iSCSI Portal Group. NetworkPipeComposition aggregates NetworkPipe instances representing iSCSI connections, which are associated to TCPProtocolEndpoints. Only an iSCSI initiator can create an iSCSI Session, an iSCSI Target MUST accept (or reject) a session request. EndOfNetworkPipe associates iSCSISession with SCSIProtocolEndpoint.

### Local Class Properties

Name | Data Type | Default Value | Qualifiers
--- | --- | --- | ---
Name | Data Type | Value
CurrentConnections | uint32 |
Description | string | The number of transport protocol connections that currently belong to this session.
MappingStrings | string | MIB.IETF|iSCSI-MIB.iscsiSsnConnectionNumber
MaxValue | sint64 | 65535
MinValue | sint64 | 1
ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_iSCSISessionSettings.MaxConnectionsPerSession
DataPDUInOrder | boolean |
Description | string | False indicates that iSCSI data PDUs within sequences MAY be in any order. True indicates that data PDUs within sequences MUST be at continuously increasing addresses, with no gaps or overlay between PDUs. Default is true.
MappingStrings | string | MIB.IETF|iSCSI-MIB.iscsiSsnDataPDUInOrder
ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_iSCSISessionSettings.DataPDUInOrderPreference
DataSequenceInOrder | boolean |
Description | string | False indicates that iSCSI data PDU sequences MAY be transferred in any order. True indicates that data PDU sequences MUST be transferred using continuously increasing offsets, except during error recovery.
MappingStrings | string | MIB.IETF|iSCSI-MIB.iscsiSsnDataSequenceInOrder
ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_iSCSISessionSettings.DataSequenceInOrderPreference
DefaultTimeToRetain | uint32 |
Description | string | The DefaultTime2Retain negotiated for this Session. This is the maximum time, in seconds after an initial wait (Time2Wait), before which an active iSCSI task reassignment is still possible after an unexpected connection termination or a connection reset.

Units | string | Seconds
DefaultTimeToWait | uint32 |
Description | string | The DefaultTime2Wait negotiated for this Session. This is the minimum time, in seconds, to wait before attempting an explicit/implicit logout or active iSCSI task reassignment after an unexpected connection termination or a connection reset.

MappingStrings | string | MIB.IETF|iSCSI-MIB.iscsiSsnImmediateData
ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_iSCSISessionSettings.ImmediateDataPreference
InitialR2T | boolean |
Description | string | If set to true, indicates that the initiator MUST wait for an R2T before sending to the target. If set to false, the initiator MAY send data immediately, within limits set by iscsiSsnFirstBurstLength and the expected data transfer length of the request.
