Term Explanation
IQN: IQN (iSCSI Qualified Name) is a set of unique name for an iSCSI Target. It should not conflict with iSCSI
Target IQNs on other servers. IQN must be less than 128 characters and can include letters(case insensitive),
numbers, colons, dashes, and dots. The suggested naming format is iqn.[date].[domain]:[device identifier], for
example: iqn.2000-04.com.synology:storage.diskarray.1.
CHAP authentication: If you select CHAP, the server will be able to verify the client's identity. In Mutual
CHAP, both the client and the server will authenticate each other. Username can be composed of 1 ~ 12 letters
and numbers, and password can be composed of 12 ~ 16 letters and numbers.

CRC Checksum: Enable CRC Checksum to check if any error occurred during data transmission.
Multiple Sessions: Allow multiple sessions from one or more initiators to connect to the same iSCSI Target at
the same time. To protect your files from corruption or unexpected data loss, it is strongly suggested that you
use a shared file system or cluster system such as VMware Virtual Machine File System (VMFS) and Oracle
Cluster File System (OCFS).
Masking: Masking allows an iSCSI Target to be exclusively accessed by specified iSCSI initiator IQNs.

2 Click Enable or Disable.
To register iSCSI Targets with an iSNS server:
