Configuring Advanced or Mutual CHAP on a Windows Server with NICs

CAUTION

CHAP security must be enabled on the storage systembefore using the Configure iSCSI connections on the Server Utility.

After entering CHAP data on the target, you must enter the same data on each NIC initiatoryou log on to. On each initiator, you enter the initiator CHAP user account data (username and secret) that the initiator sends to the target for authentication. This data is one of the initiator usernames and secrets that you entered on the target. When the initiator sends this data, the target compares it with an account database and authenticates the initiator.

STEP 1. On a Windows server, open the Navisphere Server Utility. See Procedure 30, "Running the Navisphere Server Utility," on page 165.

STEP 2. Select Configure iSCSI Connections on this server and click Next.

STEP 3. If you are setting up mutual CHAP, follow the steps below.

If you are not setting up mutual CHAP, go to STEP 4.

a.Select Configure Mutual CHAP and click Next.

b.In the Mutual CHAP Authentication window, enter the mutual CHAP secret (password). If you have already configuredmutual CHAP on the storage system, enter the same secret. Click Next.

You entered the mutual CHAP secret in the Add Initiator CHAP Credentials - Advanced page.

c.Click Finish in the success window.

STEP 4. Select Configure iSCSI Connections and click Next.

STEP 5. In the iSCSI Targets and Connections window, select one of the following options to discover the iSCSI target ports on the connected storage systems:

Discover iSCSI targets on this subnet scans the current subnet for all connected SSR212PP2f-Series iSCSI storage system targets. The utility scans the subnet in the range from 1 to 255. For example, if the current subnet is 10.12.77, the utility will scan the IP addresses from 10.12.77.1 to 10.12.77.255.
