Setting Description
iSCSI Node Alias An alias string can also be associated with an iSCSI node. The alias lets an organization
associate a user-friendly string with the iSCSI name. This setting is optional.
Enable CHAP Secret To use CHAP authentication to authenticate iSCSI connections, check this box to
enable the CHAP secret. Then, in the CHAP Secret field, type the password that will be
used by the xStack Storage Array to authenticate an initiator. This setting is optional.
The CHAP secret is case sensitive. For security, each typed character in the CHAP
secret appears as an asterisk (*). If you decide not to specify a CHAP secret now, you
can do so in the future using the Set CHAP Secret command in the iSCSI menu.
