Using with Multiple Computers

If the TeraStation is divided into multiple volumes (or drives), it can be used with multiple computers. However,
multiple computers cannot be accessed from one volume (or one drive) at the same time.
Checking Whether iSCSI Volume Is Connected
To check whether an iSCSI volume is connected, navigate to Storage > iSCSI. Current volumes will be listed. If
"Connected" is displayed under "Status", the volume is currently connected to the client.

Configuring Access Restrictions

A CHAP name and secret can be configured for the entire iSCSI volume or each existing volume. Access restrictions
can be configured so that entering a target CHAP name and secret is required for each connection.
The TeraStation can perform mutual authentication (two-way authentication). Dual passwords ensure that only
authorized client computers can access the volume on the TeraStation.
Follow the procedure below to enable access restrictions.
Configuring Access Restrictions for the Entire TeraStation
