Open the Group Member drop-down list, and select a node World Wide Name. The switch must be a

member of any group in which authentication is used. You can type a 16-character hex World Wide

Name, or a 23-character WWN with the format xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx.

Primary field.

7.

If the authentication protocol is Chap, choose a secondary hash algorithm and type a secondary

secret. If the primary hash is not supported on the initiator, the secondary hash and secret are used.
