Option

Description

CHAP

Authentication

Controls whether the iSCSI boot host software uses CHAP

authentication when connecting to the iSCSI target. With

CHAP authentication enabled, enter the CHAP ID and

CHAP secret through the iSCSI Initiator Parameters
Configuration screen.

DHCP Vendor ID

Controls how the iSCSI boot host software interprets the

Vendor Class ID field used during DHCP. If the Vendor
Class ID field in the DHCP offer packet matches the value

in the field, the iSCSI boot host software looks into the

DHCP option 43 fields for the required iSCSI boot

extensions. If DHCP is disabled, this value does not need to
be set.

IP Version

Specific to IPv6 and toggles between the IPv4 and IPv6

protocols. All IP settings are lost when switching from one
protocol version to the other.

HBA Boot Mode

Set this option to disable when the host OS is configured

for software initiator mode and to enable for HBA mode.

This option is available on HP FlexFabric adapters. The
parameter cannot be changed when the adapter is in

Multi-Function mode.

Spinup Delay

Defaults to Disabled. When enabled, delays access to the
devices. Press CTRL+S to bypass Spin Up Delay during

BIOS initialization.

DCHP boot setup for iSCSI Boot (IPv4)

DHCP boot provides a method for the iSCSI initiator to acquire target parameters from a DHCP server. To
configure the DHCP server to support iSCSI boot, first ensure that your DHCP server is set up.
