The general syntax is: .Bf Li .Bd -literal # this is a comment nickname_1 { variable = value; ... } nickname_2 { variable = value; ... } ... .Ed .Ef .Bl -tag -width MaxConnections .It Cm AuthMethod Sets the authentication type. Type can be either .Qq Ar None , or .Qq Ar CHAP . Default is .Qq Ar None . When set to .Cm CHAP , both .Cm chapIName and .Cm chapSecret must be defined. .It Cm chapIName Login for CHAP authentication. .It Cm chapSecret Secret for CHAP authentication. .It Cm tgtChapName Target login for Mutual CHAP authentication. .It Cm tgtChapSecret Target secret for Mutual CHAP authentication. .It Cm HeaderDigest Sets the header digest; a checksum calculated over the header of iSCSI PDUs, and verified on receive. Digest can be either .Qq Ar None , or .Qq Ar CRC32C . Default is .Qq Ar None . .It Cm DataDigest Sets the data digest; a checksum calculated over the Data Section of iSCSI PDUs, and verified on receive. Digest can be either .Qq Ar None , or .Qq Ar CRC32C . Default is .Qq Ar None . .It Cm InitiatorName Sets the initiator name. By default, the name is concatenation of .Qq Ar iqn.1994-09.org.freebsd: with the hostname. .It Cm TargetName Sets the target name. Not required for discovery sessions. .It Cm TargetAddress Sets the target address and port, in .Sy address[:port] format. The .Sy address can be either an IP address, or hostname. The optional port defaults to 3260. .It Cm SessionType Sets the session type. Type can be either .Qq Ar Discovery , or .Qq Ar Normal . Default is .Qq Ar Normal . For normal sessions, the .Sy TargetName must be defined. Discovery sessions result in the initiator connecting to all the targets returned by SendTargets iSCSI discovery with the defined .Sy TargetAddress . .It Cm Offload Name of selected iSCSI hardware offload driver. Default is .Qq Ar None . .El .Sh FILES .Bl -tag -width indent .It Pa /etc/iscsi.conf .El .Sh EXAMPLES .Bd -literal myiscsi { # nickname targetaddress = iscsi1 targetname = iqn.1900.com.com:sn.123456 } myiscsi6 { # nickname targetaddress = [2001:db8::de:ef]:3260 targetname = iqn.1900.com.com:sn.123456 } chaptest { targetaddress = 10.0.0.1; targetname = iqn.1900.com.com:sn.123456; initiatorname = iqn.2005-01.il.ac.huji.cs:nobody; authmethod = CHAP; chapiname = iqn.2005-01.il.ac.huji.cs:nobody; chapsecret = "secretsecret"; } .Ed .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr iscontrol 8 , .Xr iscsictl 8 .\"Sh HISTORY .\"Sh AUTHORS
