>Description:
The handbook about the native iSCSI target client seems to contain an error about the default iSCSI port.

available here:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-iscsi.html

it says:
"The following two lines make ctld(8) listen on all IPv4 (listen 0.0.0.0) and IPv6 (listen [::]) addresses on the default port (3560)."

As the default port for iSCSI is 3260, and the output of netstat -an confirms that it is listening on port 3260 (with the default configuration from the handbook page), I believe this to be an error.

>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
it says:
"The following two lines make ctld(8) listen on all IPv4 (listen 0.0.0.0) and IPv6 (listen [::]) addresses on the default port (3560)."

This should be:
The following two lines make ctld(8) listen on all IPv4 (listen 0.0.0.0) and IPv6 (listen [::]) addresses on the default port (3260).
