An in CHAP secret is for authentication of the server to the iPBridge. The iPBridge can store up to 32 in secrets, each with a unique Account Name (optionally the Initiator Name) and secret pair. The Account Name can be 1 to 223 characters. Account Names are case sensitive. Account name can not be all.
An out chap secret is for authentication of the iPBridge to the rest of the network. There can only be one out secret. The account name is ignored for out secrets and defaulted to root.
In multiple target mode, you may use discovery to determine the Target Name.
In single target mode
Set syntax: set iSCSIChapSecret [in out delete] [Account Name] <Secret>
Get syntax: get iSCSIChapSecret [Account Name all]
In multiple target mode
Set syntax: set iSCSIChapSecret [Target Name discovery] [in out delete] [Account Name] <Secret> Get syntax: get iSCSIChapSecret [Target Name] [Account Name all]
