ISCSI uses CHAP authentication, as shown in the example VMware vSphere iSCSI Initiator setup below.

  1. After setting an iSCSI User Name and Password in the iSCSI Target, use the same credentials in the CHAP authentication for the iSCSI initiator.




  2. In the VMware vSphere ESXi example below, there are several iSCSI datastores. 




  3. The following shows a fully-configured iSCSI Software Adapter in VMware vSphere ESXi.




  4. The corresponding iSCSI LUN Targets configuration is visible from the SoftNAS® server side. 

    Note    : Different user names and passwords may be used for each target. In this example, there are no IP restrictions for the allowed initiators (any initiator is allowed to connect). The range of initiator IPs allowed to connect can be restricted in addition to requiring a user name and password.
