ATTO Technology Inc. iPBridge Installation and Operation Manual
7.1.9 iSCSI commands
If your iPBridge has been configured for iSCSI, default settings may be customized to your
specifications using the CLI commands in this section.
Note
For iSCSI-configured iPBridge models only
iSCSIAlias
Provides a human-readable name assigned to the
iPBridge. Aliases may be 1 to 64 characters long and may
contain spaces if spaces are enclosed in quotation marks.
Entering the
set iSCSIAlias
command with no alias
parameter causes the alias to be removed.
Default: 0
Set syntax: set iSCSIAlias [Alias]
Requires a SaveConfiguration command
Get syntax: get iSCSIAlias
iSCSIChap
Enables/disables requiring CHAP (Challenge-
Handshake Authentication Protocol) to be used for the
iSCSI protocol. If
Multiple Target mode
has been
enabled, a valid target name must be provided. If
CHAP
is enabled, the target requires the initiator to negotiate
CHAP authentication using the CHAP secrets. An
initiator may reject this negotiation.
Default:disabled
In single target mode
Set syntax: set iSCSIChap [enabled | disabled]
Get syntax: get iSCSIChap
In multiple target mode
Set syntax: set iSCSIChap [Target Name] [enabled |
disabled]
Get syntax: get iSCSIChap [Target Name]
iSCSIChapSecret
Specifies the incoming and outgoing passwords for iSCSI
chap sessions.
RestoreConfiguration default
sets the
CHAP secret passwords pair to default values.
Secrets are case sensitive, 12 (16 for Microsoft iSCSI
initiator) to 32 characters, and cannot contain spaces.
In
and
out
secrets must be different.
When either secret is all 0s, iSCSI CHAP authentication
is disabled. Additionally, an all ‘0’ secret can be
configured by entering the
iSCSIChapSecret
command
confirmation prompts with no parameters.
An
in
CHAP secret is for authentication of the server to
the iPBridge. The iPBridge can store up to 32
in
secrets,
each with a unique
Account Name
(optionally the
Initiator Name) and secret pair. The Account Name can
be 1 to 223 characters. Account Names are case sensitive.
Account name can not be
all
.
An
out
chap secret is for authentication of the iPBridge
to the rest of the network. There can only be one out
secret. The account name is ignored for out secrets and
defaulted to
root
.
In multiple target mode, you may use
discovery
to
determine the
Target Name
.
In single target mode
Set syntax: set iSCSIChapSecret [in | out | delete]
[Account Name] <Secret>
Get syntax: get iSCSIChapSecret [Account Name | all]
In multiple target mode
Set syntax: set iSCSIChapSecret [Target Name |
discovery] [in | out | delete] [Account Name] <Secret>
Get syntax: get iSCSIChapSecret [Target Name]
[Account Name | all]
iSCSIPortNumber
Specifies the port number whereby the iPBridge listens
for iSCSI connections. The port number must be between
1024 and 65535 except for port 860.
Default: 3260
Set syntax: set iSCSIPortNumber [portnum]
Requires a SaveConfiguration command
Get syntax: get iSCSIPortNumber
iSCSITarget
Creates/deletes an iSCSI target name. The target name
acts as a suffix to the standard bridge iSCSI-qualified
name. The target name may not exceed 24 characters. A
newly-created target has one LUN, the iPBridge LUN, at
LUN 0. If the target name already exists, this command
does nothing.
Multiple Target mode
must be enabled
to use this command. In verbose mode, overwriting a map
requires secondary confirmation of the action.
Immediate command: iSCSI [Target Name] <delete>
