If it's set to some value other than 0, then the 0x20 bit is checked in
the opcode:

	if that bit is set, the packet isn't decoded as iSCSI if the
	source port doesn't have that value;

	if that bit isn't set, the packet isn't decoded as iSCSI if the
	destination port doesn't have that value.

That may have the effect of causing only that port number to be
decoded as iSCSI.

I will leave it up to Mark Burton, the author of the dissector, to make
any changes to the way iSCSI traffic to ports other than the one in the
preferences setting.
