1. To enable CHAP (optional), the following line needs to be enabled in your /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf file:
node.session.auth.authmethod = CHAP
2. To set a user name and password for CHAP authentication of the initiator by the target(s), edit the following lines:
node.session.auth.username = <iscsi_initiator_username>
node.session.auth.password = <CHAP_initiator_password>
3. If you are using Mutual CHAP authentication, you can set the user name and password for CHAP authentication of
the target(s) by the initiator by editing the following lines:
node.session.auth.username_in=<iscsi_target_username>
node.session.auth.password_in =<CHAP_target_password>
4. To set up discovery session CHAP authentication, first uncomment the following line:
discovery.sendtargets.auth.authmethod = CHAP
5. Set a user name and password for a discovery session CHAP authentication of the initiator by the target(s) by
editing the following lines:
discovery.sendtargets.auth.username =<iscsi_initiator_username>
discovery.sendtargets.auth.password =<CHAP_initiator_password>
6. To set the user name and password for discovery session CHAP authentication of the target(s) by the initiator for
Mutual CHAP, edit the following lines:
discovery.sendtargets.auth.username = <iscsi_target_username>
discovery.sendtargets.auth.password_in = <CHAP_target_password>
7. The final configuration contained in the /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf file may look like this:
node.session.auth.authmethod = CHAP
node.session.auth.username = iqn.2005-
node.session.auth.password = password_1
node.session.auth.username_in= iqn.1984-
node.session.auth.password_in = test1234567890
discovery.sendtargets.auth.authmethod = CHAP
discovery.sendtargets.auth.username = iqn.2005-
03.com.redhat01.78b1b8cad821 discovery.sendtargets.auth.password =
password_1
discovery.sendtargets.auth.username = iqn.1984-
