After turning on CHAP authentication, you must set up at least one

CHAP account (see Section 8.6.5).

8.6.4 Session

The session function allows you to view information on a session

initiated by an iSCSI initiator application (see Section 9), including

Initiator Name, TPGT, Error Recovery Level, and Error Recovery

Count.

Hover your mouse over the button in the “No.” column and click on

“List connection.” It will list all the connections of the session.

8.6.5 CHAP Account

CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) is a common

iSCSI authentication method. When CHAP is enabled, the RTX

Secure will require authentication at login through an iSCSI

initiator (see Section 9). Authentication also occurs at various

times during the connection, by way of transferring the username,

initiator password (also called “initiator secret”), and target

password (also called “target secret”). The RTX Secure uses

the same value for initiator secret and target secret. For added

security, the authentication information is hashed and a token is

sent instead of the information itself.

a. To use CHAP, you will need to turn on CHAP authentication (see

Section 8.6.3) and then follow the steps there to set up a CHAP

account.

b. After clicking on the “CHAP Account” option, you will see the

following screen:

Click “Create” to create a new user. This brings up a screen

with fields for User, Secret, and Confirm. Enter a user name in

the first field, and a 12-16 character password to use as the

secret in the second and third fields. Click the “Confirm” button.

c. The new CHAP account will appear on the main CHAP account

screen:

Modifying the CHAP Account

Hover your mouse cursor underneath the username to bring

up a menu. Select “Modify user information” to change the

username and password, or select “Delete” to remove the user. A

confirmation box will appear. Click “OK” and the username will be

deleted from the RTX Secure.

8.7 Volume Configuration

The Volume Configuration menu provides the options you will use to

set up one or RAID volumes of varying levels on the RTX Secure. Click

on Volume Configuration to view the following menu options: Volume

Creation Wizard, Physical Disk, Volume Group, User Data Volume,

Cache Volume, and Logical Unit.

The following diagram describes the relationship of RAID

components in the RTX Secure.
