Configuration: Using iSCSI

Changing the iSCSI Target Authentication

1 In the AMW, select the Setup tab.
2 Select Manage iSCSI Settings.

The

Manage iSCSI Settings window is displayed and by default, the

Target Authentication tab is selected. To change the authentication

settings, select:

None—If you do not require initiator authentication. If you select

None, any initiator can access the target.

CHAP—To enable an initiator that tries to authenticate the target

using Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP). Define

the CHAP secret only if you want to use mutual CHAP

authentication. If you select

CHAP, but no CHAP target secret is

defined, an error message is displayed. See "Creating CHAP Secrets"

on page 84.

3 To enter the CHAP secret, click CHAP secret.

The

Enter Target CHAP Secret dialog is displayed.

4 Enter the Target CHAP secret.

NOTE:

The Target CHAP secret must be between 12 and 57 characters.

5 Enter the exact same target CHAP secret in Confirm target CHAP secret.

NOTE:

If you do not want to create a CHAP secret, you can generate a

random CHAP secret automatically. To generate a random CHAP secret, click

Generate Random CHAP Secret.

6 Click OK.

NOTE:

You can select the None and CHAP at the same time, for example,

when one initiator may not have CHAP and the other initiator has only CHAP

selected.
