6.1.8 iSCSI commands

Default settings may be customized to your specifications using the CLI commands in this section.

iSCSIAlias

Provides a human-readable name assigned to the iPBridge. Aliases may be 1 to 64 characters long and may contain spaces if spaces are enclosed in quotation marks. Entering the set iSCSIAlias command with no alias parameter causes the alias to be removed.

Default: ““

Set syntax: set iSCSIAlias [Alias]

Requires a SaveConfiguration command

Get syntax: get iSCSIAlias

iSCSICHAP

Controls whether CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) is used for iSCSI protocol. If CHAP is enabled, the target will require the initiator to negotiate CHAP authentication using the CHAP secrets. An initiator may reject this negotiation. If discovery is specified, the setting will apply to CHAP during discovery sessions.

Set syntax: set iSCSICHAP [defaultTarget Name discovery] [enabled disabled]

Get syntax: iSCSICHAP [defaultTarget Namediscovery]

iSCSIChapSecret

Specifies the incoming and outgoing passwords for iSCSI chap sessions. Secrets are case sensitive, 12 (16 for Microsoft iSCSI initiator) to 32 characters, and cannot contain spaces. In and out secrets must be different. If 'discovery' is specified, the setting will apply to CHAP during discovery sessions.

An in secret is for authentication of the server to the bridge. The bridge can store up to 32 'in' secrets, each with a unique Account Name and secret pair.

An out secret is for authentication of the bridge to the server. There is only one 'out' secret per target that cannot be deleted. The account name for the out secret is 'root' by default.

secret. The account name is ignored for out secrets and defaults to root.

Set syntax: set iSCSICHAPSecret [default target name discovery] [in [Account Name all] out [root] delete [Account Name all]] <Secret>

Get syntax: get iSCSICHAPSecret [default target name discovery] [in [Account Name all] out [root]]

iSCSIIntiators

Displays a list of previous and current successfully logged-in iSCSI initiators. This list comes from the successful initiators recorded in the event log and any initiators that were manually added since the last reboot. This list will be cleared if the event log is cleared.

Immediate information: iSCSIIntiators

iSCSIPortNumber

Specifies the port number whereby the iPBridge will listen for iSCSI connections. The port number must be between 1024 and 65535 except for port 860.

Default: 3260

Set syntax: set iSCSIPortNumber [dp[n] all] [portnumber]

Requires a SaveConfiguration command Get syntax: get iSCSIPortNumber [dp[n]] all]

iSCSITarget

Creates/deletes an iSCSI target name. The target name will act as a suffix to the standard bridge iSCSI-qualified name. The target name may not exceed 24 characters. A newly-created target has one LUN, the iPBridge LUN, at LUN 0. If the target name already exists, this command does nothing. In verbose mode, overwriting a map requires secondary confirmation of the action.

Immediate command: iSCSITarget [Target Name] <delete>

iSCSITargetNameDisplay

Displays the iSCSI target name.

Immediate command: iSCSITargetNameDisplay
