A new version of the iSCSI MIB draft is available at:

ftp://ftpeng.cisco.com/mbakke/iscsi/draft-ietf-ips-iscsi-mib-02.txt

A matching, informal UML model of the MIB is at:

ftp://ftpeng.cisco.com/mbakke/iscsi/Visio-ietf-iscsi-uml-model-02.pdf

A matching table structure drawing is at:

Changes from draft -01 include:

- Simplified the definitions of the connection states
- Added ISID, TSID, and CID
- Added instance-level stats for digest, format, and connection errors.
- Added portal group tags
- Added session attributes to match -07.
- Changed iscsiSsnType to iscsiSsnDirection; re-used iscsiSsnType.
- Removed format errors from the session; a format error is a bug, and
  will destroy the session anyway.
- Added notifications for login failures (initiator and target), and
  abnormal session failures caused by digest, connection, and/or format
  errors.
