Authentication Area
• Authentication Method - Three options are available for the Authentication method: “None”,
“One-Way CHAP” and “Mutual CHAP”. One-Way CHAP requires only that the authenticator
(iSCSI target) authenticate the iSCSI initiator. Mutual CHAP requires that both the iSCSI target
and iSCSI initiator authenticate each other. When “None” is selected, no authentication is
performed.
• Target CHAP Name - The iSCSI login name sent by the initiator to the target for authentication.
This parameter is required for both One-Way CHAP and Mutual CHAP authentication. The
parameter is also known as the username. It can be any sequence of characters and numbers.
The minimum length of the name is 1 character and the maximum length is 256 characters.
• Target Secret - The iSCSI login secret sent by the initiator to the target for authentication. This
parameter is required for both One-Way CHAP and Mutual CHAP authentication. It can be any
sequence of characters and numbers. The minimum length of the secret is 12 characters and
maximum length is 16 characters.
• Initiator CHAP Name - The iSCSI login name sent by the target to the initiator for authentication.
This parameter is only required for Mutual CHAP authentication. The parameter is also known
as the username. It can be any sequence of characters and numbers. The minimum length of
the name is 1 character and the maximum length is 256 characters.
• Initiator Secret - The iSCSI login secret sent by the target to the initiator for authentication. This
parameter is only required for Mutual CHAP authentication. It can be any sequence of
characters and numbers. The minimum length of the secret is 12 characters and the maximum
length is 16 characters.

To view default login options:
1. In the discovery-tree, select the iSCSI port whose default login settings you want to view.
Note: Any changes to the iSCSI initiator name and alias apply to all ports on the adapter
(i.e. all iSCSI ports share the iSCSI initiator name and alias).
Note: On Windows platforms running the Microsoft iSCSI initiator, the initiator iSCSI name
is the Microsoft iSCSI iqn. If you change it, the change remains in effect until the
system is rebooted. After reboot, the Microsoft iqn is used again as the iSCSI initiator
name.
