A technical comment was received on the iSNS MIB Draft during WG Last Call.
The draft MIB has been updated to reflect the following:
  - Request the iSNS MIB support a new iFCP attribute called FC Permanent
Port Name as in the iSNS Spec v16.  This attribute is not used by the iSCSI
protocol.  To support this, an additional MIB object was added:
   isnsRegFcPortPpnWwn         OBJECT-TYPE
       SYNTAX                  FcNameIdOrZero
       MAX-ACCESS              read-only
       STATUS                  current
       DESCRIPTION
   "The Permanent Port Name attribute is the FC Port Name WWPN of
    the first Storage Node registered in the iSNS Database that is
    associated with a particular FC Device (FC Node).  The PPN of
    all subsequent Storage Node registrations that are associated
    with that FC Device (FC Node) SHALL be set to the FC Port Name
    WWPN of the first Storage Node, as defined in the iSNS
    Specification."
       REFERENCE "draft-ietf-ips-iSNS-16.txt, Section 7"
       ::= { isnsRegFcPortEntry 16 }

The deltas from draft 03 are shown in this PDF version:
