5) Remove the target portal that you configured on the iSCSI to SAS bridge during target discovery:
iscsicli RemoveTargetPortal <IP_address> <TCP_listening_port>
6) You will reset this IP address under CHAP authentication in the following steps.
Add the target portal with CHAP defined:
iscsicli QAddTargetPortal
<IP_address_of_iSCSI_port_on_storage_array>
[CHAP_username][CHAP_password]
where
[
CHAP_username] is the initiator name
[CHAP_password] is the target CHAP secret
