+[I/O controller connection management]
+# This section contains parameters to manage I/O controller connections.
+# For example, parameters are provided to control disconnect policy. In other
+# words, whether stacd will disconnect from IOCs on DLPE removal and which
+# connections will be affected.
+#
+# Also, what should stacd do when a DLPE NCC bit (Not Connected to CDC) is
+# asserted. Should stacd stop trying to connect to an I/O controller after a
+# certain number of unsuccessful attempts.
+#
+# See the man pages for details: man stacd.conf
+
+# disconnect-scope: Determines which connections, if any, will be the target of
+#                   a potential disconnect on DLPE removal.
+#
+#                   Type:    String
+#                   Range:   [only-stas-connections | all-connections-matching-disconnect-trtypes | no-disconnect]
+#                   Default: only-stas-connections
+#disconnect-scope=only-stas-connections
+
+# disconnect-trtypes: Specify which connections should be audited based on the
+#                     transport type. This parameter only applies when
+#                     "disconnect-scope = all-connections-matching-disconnect-trtypes".
+#
+#                     Type:    String
+#                     Range:   [tcp, rdma, fc, tcp+rdma, tcp+fc, rdma+fc, tcp+rdma+fc]
+#                     Default: tcp
+#disconnect-trtypes=tcp
+
+# connect-attempts-on-ncc: The NCC bit (Not Connected to CDC) returned in a
+#                          DLPE indicates whether a connection is currently
+#                          established between the CDC and the subsystem listed
+#                          in the DLPE.
+#
+#                          When the NCC bit is asserted, it may mean that the
+#                          subsystem is offline or that fabrics connectivity is
+#                          momentarily lost. If the host is also unable to
+#                          connect to the subsystem, then there is no point in
+#                          continuing to try to connect. In fact, the CDC will
+#                          monitor the situation an inform the host (AEN) when
+#                          connectivity is restored.
+#
+#                          This field is used to tell stacd how to behave when
+#                          the NCC bit is asserted. How many times should it try
+#                          to connect before give-up, or whether to keep trying
+#                          indefinitely.
+#
+#                          Type:    Integer
+#                          Range:   [0, 2..N], 0 means "Never stop trying". A
+#                                   non-0 value indicates the number of attempts
+#                                   before giving up. This value should never be
+#                                   set to 1. A value of 1 will automatically be
+#                                   increased to 2. That's because a single
+#                                   failure may be normal and a mimimum of 2
+#                                   attempts is required to conclude that a
+#                                   connection is not possible.
+#                          Default: 0
+#connect-attempts-on-ncc=0

+[Controllers]
+# controller: I/O Controllers (IOC) are specified with this keyword.
+#
+#             Syntax:
+#               controller = transport=<trtype>;traddr=<traddr>;trsvcid=<trsvcid>;host-traddr=<traddr>;host-iface=<iface>,nqn=<subnqn>
+#
+#             transport=<trtype>    [MANDATORY]
+#               This field specifies the network fabric being used for a NVMe-over-
+#               Fabrics network. Current string values include:
+#
+#               Value   Definition
+#               ------- -----------------------------------------------------------
+#               rdma    The network fabric is an rdma network (RoCE, iWARP, Infiniband, basic rdma, etc)
+#               fc      The network fabric is a Fibre Channel network.
+#               tcp     The network fabric is a TCP/IP network.
+#               loop    Connect to a NVMe over Fabrics target on the local host
+#
+#             traddr=<traddr>       [MANDATORY]
+#               This field specifies the network address of the Controller. For
+#               transports using IP addressing (e.g. rdma) this should be an IP-
+#               based address (ex. IPv4, IPv6). It could also be a resolvable host
+#               name (e.g. localhost).
+#
+#             nqn=<subnqn>          [MANDATORY]
+#               This field specifies the Subsystem's NVMe Qualified Name.
+#
+#             trsvcid=<trsvcid>     [OPTIONAL]
+#               This field specifies the transport service id. For transports using
+#               IP addressing (e.g. rdma) this field is the port number.
+#
+#               Depending on the transport type, this field will default to either
+#               8009 or 4420 as follows.
+#
+#               UDP port 4420 and TCP port 4420 have been assigned by IANA
+#               for use by NVMe over Fabrics. NVMe/RoCEv2 controllers use UDP port
+#               4420 by default. NVMe/iWARP controllers use TCP port 4420 by
+#               default.
+#
+#               TCP port 4420 has been assigned for use by NVMe over Fabrics and TCP
+#               port 8009 has been assigned by IANA for use by NVMe over Fabrics
+#               discovery. TCP port 8009 is the default TCP port for NVMe/TCP
+#               discovery controllers. There is no default TCP port for NVMe/TCP I/O
+#               controllers, the Transport Service Identifier (TRSVCID) field in the
+#               Discovery Log Entry indicates the TCP port to use.
+#
+#               The TCP ports that may be used for NVMe/TCP I/O controllers include
+#               TCP port 4420, and the Dynamic and/or Private TCP ports (i.e., ports
+#               in the TCP port number range from 49152 to 65535). NVMe/TCP I/O
+#               controllers should not use TCP port 8009. TCP port 4420 shall not be
+#               used for both NVMe/iWARP and NVMe/TCP at the same IP address on the
+#               same network.
+#
+#             host-traddr=<traddr>  [OPTIONAL]
+#               This field specifies the network address used on the host to connect
+#               to the Controller. For TCP, this sets the source address on the
+#               socket.
+#
+#             host-iface=<iface>    [OPTIONAL]
+#               This field specifies the network interface used on the host to
+#               connect to the Controller (e.g. IP eth1, enp2s0, enx78e7d1ea46da).
+#               This forces the connection to be made on a specific interface
+#               instead of letting the system decide.
+#

+#
+#          The syntax is the same as for "controller=", except that the key
+#          host-traddr does not apply. Multiple "exclude=" keywords may
+#          appear in the config file to define the exclusion list.
+#
+#          Note 1: A minimal match approach is used to eliminate unwanted
+#          controllers. That is, you do not need to specify all the
+#          parameters to identify a controller. Just specifying the
+#          host-iface, for example, can be used to exclude all controllers
+#          on an interface.
+#
+#          Note 2: "exclude=" takes precedence over "controller=". A
+#          controller specified by the "controller=" keyword, can be
+#          eliminated by the "exclude=" keyword.
+#
+#          Syntax: Same as "controller=" above.
+#          Type:   String
+#
+#          Example:

+#               ------- -----------------------------------------------------------
+#               rdma    The network fabric is an rdma network (RoCE, iWARP,
+#                       Infiniband, basic rdma, etc)
+#               fc      The network fabric is a Fibre Channel network.

+#
+#             traddr=<traddr>      [MANDATORY]
+#               This field specifies the network address of the Controller. For
+#               transports using IP addressing (e.g. rdma) this should be an IP-
+#               based address (ex. IPv4, IPv6). It could also be a resolvable host
+#               name (e.g. localhost).
+#
+#             nqn=<dcnqn>          [OPTIONAL]
+#               This field specifies the Discovery Controller's NVMe Qualified

+#
+#             trsvcid=<trsvcid>    [OPTIONAL]
+#               This field specifies the transport service id. For transports using
+#               IP addressing (e.g. rdma) this field is the port number.
+#
+#               Depending on the transport type, this field will default to either
+#               8009 or 4420 as follows.
+#
+#               UDP port 4420 and TCP port 4420 have been assigned by IANA
+#               for use by NVMe over Fabrics. NVMe/RoCEv2 controllers use UDP port
+#               4420 by default. NVMe/iWARP controllers use TCP port 4420 by
+#               default.
+#
+#               TCP port 4420 has been assigned for use by NVMe over Fabrics and TCP
+#               port 8009 has been assigned by IANA for use by NVMe over Fabrics
+#               discovery. TCP port 8009 is the default TCP port for NVMe/TCP
+#               discovery controllers. There is no default TCP port for NVMe/TCP I/O
+#               controllers, the Transport Service Identifier (TRSVCID) field in the
+#               Discovery Log Entry indicates the TCP port to use.
+#
+#               The TCP ports that may be used for NVMe/TCP I/O controllers include
+#               TCP port 4420, and the Dynamic and/or Private TCP ports (i.e., ports
+#               in the TCP port number range from 49152 to 65535). NVMe/TCP I/O
+#               controllers should not use TCP port 8009. TCP port 4420 shall not be
+#               used for both NVMe/iWARP and NVMe/TCP at the same IP address on the
+#               same network.

+#          parameters to identify a controller. Just specifying the
+#          host-iface, for example, can be used to exclude all controllers
+#          on an interface.
+#
+#          Note 2: "exclude=" takes precedence over "controller=". A
