Create Chap-Record - HP P2000 Reference Manual

create chap-record

Description For iSCSI, creates a CHAP record to authenticate login requests. When CHAP is enabled, the record
enables authentication between the originator (initiator) and recipient (target) of a login request. This
command is permitted whether or not CHAP is enabled.
The CHAP record can specify one name-secret pair to authenticate the originator only (one-way
CHAP) or two pairs to authenticate both the originator and the recipient (mutual CHAP).
For a login request from an iSCSI host to a storage system, the host is the originator and the storage
system is the recipient.
Syntax
create chap-record
name originator-name
secret originator-secret
[mutual-name recipient-name mutual-secret recipient-secret]
Parameters name originator-name
The originator name, typically in IQN format. The name can have a maximum of 223 bytes,
including 0–9, lowercase a–z, hyphen, colon, and period.
secret originator-secret
The secret that the recipient uses to authenticate the originator. The secret is case sensitive and can
include 12–16 bytes.
mutual-name recipient-name
Optional; for mutual CHAP only. The recipient name, typically in IQN format. The name can have a
maximum of 223 bytes, including 0–9, lowercase a–z, hyphen, colon, and period. To determine a
storage system's IQN, use the
parameter and mutual-secret must be set together.
mutual-secret recipient-secret
Optional; for mutual CHAP only. The secret that the originator uses to authenticate the recipient. The
secret is case sensitive, can include 12–16 bytes, and must differ from the originator secret. A storage
system's secret is shared by both controllers. This parameter and mutual-name must be set
together.
Example Create a one-way CHAP record to enable a storage system to authenticate a host initiator:
# create chap-record name iqn.1991-05.com.microsoft:myhost.domain secret
123456abcDEF
Success: Command completed successfully. - A CHAP record was created.
