+# iSNS Preferences
+
+These are the preferences that control how Wireshark dissects the [iSNS](/iSNS) protocol.

+
+## Desegment iSNS over TCP messages
+
+When you activate this preference, Wireshark will attempt to reassembly all [iSNS](/iSNS) PDUs that span multiple TCP segments into one fully reassembled PDU.  
+This is useful for example if a specific implementation only sends the [iSNS](/iSNS) header and the actual [iSNS](/iSNS) command in two separate packets or with servers that respond with massively large replies.  
+In order to make this preference take effect, you must also enable reassembly in [TCP\_Reassembly](/TCP_Reassembly).
+
+\-- someone should donate a capture with isns segments spanning multiple segments and link to it as an example from here.

+## Discussion
+
+We should sometime later add support to defragment iSNS PDUs that are fragmented at the iSNS layer as well.
