Configure Target Authentication Menu

The iSCSI HBA firmware uses the challenge handshake authentication protocol (CHAP) as an authentication mechanism between the iSCSI initiators (QLA4xxx HBA ports) and the targets to which they are attached. Authentication can be disabled or enabled for a specific target or for all targets attached to the QLA4xxx HBA port.

To configure target authentication (CHAP):

1.If you have not already, specify the HBA port whose settings you want to view or change by typing the number for Select HBA Port, and then pressing ENTER.

SANsurfer iSCSI HBA CLI lists all iSCSI HBA ports.

2.Type the number for the HBA port whose settings you want to change, and then press ENTER.
