Did you really look at the annex for this ?

It's in the low 16 bits (bytes 6-7) of the SID as the annex indicates.

These numbers are too large for just "port space".

iSER SID is 0x000000000106035c

in your nomenclature, I guess 0x106035c

01 says RDMA aware ULP service ID range
06 says IP protocol is TCP
0x035c (port 860) is the well known TCP port for iSCSI
