128Type can be either
129.Qq Ar none ,
130.Qq Ar deny ,
131.Qq Ar chap ,
132or
133.Qq Ar chap-mutual .
134In most cases it is not necessary to set the type using this clause;
135it is usually used to disable authentication for a given
136.Sy auth-group .
137.It Ic chap Ar user Ar secret
138A set of CHAP authentication credentials.
139Note that for any
140.Sy auth-group ,
141the configuration may only contain either

148Note that for any
149.Sy auth-group ,

155.It Ic initiator-name Ar initiator-name
156An iSCSI initiator name.
157Only initiators with a name matching one of the defined
158names will be allowed to connect.

160name.
161.It Ic initiator-portal Ar address Ns Op / Ns Ar prefixlen

168.El
169.Ss portal-group Context
170.Bl -tag -width indent
171.It Ic discovery-auth-group Ar name
172Assign a previously defined authentication group to the portal group,
173to be used for target discovery.
174By default, portal groups are assigned predefined
175.Sy auth-group
176.Qq Ar default ,
177which denies discovery.
178Another predefined
179.Sy auth-group ,
180.Qq Ar no-authentication ,
181may be used
182to permit discovery without authentication.
183.It Ic discovery-filter Ar filter
184Determines which targets are returned during discovery.
185Filter can be either
186.Qq Ar none ,
187.Qq Ar portal ,
188.Qq Ar portal-name ,
189or
190.Qq Ar portal-name-auth .
191When set to
192.Qq Ar none ,
193discovery will return all targets assigned to that portal group.
194When set to
195.Qq Ar portal ,
196discovery will not return targets that cannot be accessed by the
197initiator because of their
198.Sy initiator-portal .
199When set to
200.Qq Ar portal-name ,
201the check will include both
202.Sy initiator-portal
203and
204.Sy initiator-name .
205When set to
206.Qq Ar portal-name-auth ,
207the check will include
208.Sy initiator-portal ,
209.Sy initiator-name ,
210and authentication credentials.
211The target is returned if it does not require CHAP authentication,
212or if the CHAP user and secret used during discovery match those
213used by the target.
214Note that when using
215.Qq Ar portal-name-auth ,
216targets that require CHAP authentication will only be returned if
217.Sy discovery-auth-group
218requires CHAP.
219The default is
220.Qq Ar none .
221.It Ic listen Ar address
222An IPv4 or IPv6 address and port to listen on for incoming connections.
223.\".It Ic listen-iser Ar address
224.\"An IPv4 or IPv6 address and port to listen on for incoming connections

228.Sy portal-group .
229.It Ic redirect Ar address
230IPv4 or IPv6 address to redirect initiators to.
231When configured, all initiators attempting to connect to portal
232belonging to this
233.Sy portal-group
234will get redirected using "Target moved temporarily" login response.
235Redirection happens before authentication and any
236.Sy initiator-name
237or
238.Sy initiator-portal
239checks are skipped.
240.It Ic tag Ar value
241Unique 16-bit tag value of this
242.Sy portal-group .
243If not specified, the value is generated automatically.
244.It Ic foreign
245Specifies that this
246.Sy portal-group
247is listened by some other host.
248This host will announce it on discovery stage, but won't listen.
249.El
250.Ss target Context
251.Bl -tag -width indent
252.It Ic alias Ar text
253Assign a human-readable description to the target.
254There is no default.
255.It Ic auth-group Ar name
256Assign a previously defined authentication group to the target.
257By default, targets that do not specify their own auth settings,
258using clauses such as
259.Sy chap
260or
261.Sy initiator-name ,
262are assigned
263predefined
264.Sy auth-group
265.Qq Ar default ,
266which denies all access.
267Another predefined
268.Sy auth-group ,
269.Qq Ar no-authentication ,
270may be used to permit access
271without authentication.
272Note that this clause can be overridden using the second argument
273to a
274.Sy portal-group
275clause.
276.It Ic auth-type Ar type
277Sets the authentication type.
278Type can be either
279.Qq Ar none ,
280.Qq Ar deny ,
281.Qq Ar chap ,
282or
283.Qq Ar chap-mutual .
284In most cases it is not necessary to set the type using this clause;
285it is usually used to disable authentication for a given
286.Sy target .
287This clause is mutually exclusive with
288.Sy auth-group ;
289one cannot use
290both in a single target.
291.It Ic chap Ar user Ar secret
292A set of CHAP authentication credentials.
293Note that targets must only use one of
294.Sy auth-group , chap , No or Sy chap-mutual ;
295it is a configuration error to mix multiple types in one target.
296.It Ic chap-mutual Ar user Ar secret Ar mutualuser Ar mutualsecret
297A set of mutual CHAP authentication credentials.
298Note that targets must only use one of
299.Sy auth-group , chap , No or Sy chap-mutual ;
300it is a configuration error to mix multiple types in one target.
301.It Ic initiator-name Ar initiator-name
302An iSCSI initiator name.
303Only initiators with a name matching one of the defined
304names will be allowed to connect.
305If not defined, there will be no restrictions based on initiator
306name.
307This clause is mutually exclusive with
308.Sy auth-group ;
309one cannot use
310both in a single target.
311.It Ic initiator-portal Ar address Ns Op / Ns Ar prefixlen
312An iSCSI initiator portal: an IPv4 or IPv6 address, optionally
313followed by a literal slash and a prefix length.
314Only initiators with an address matching one of the defined
315addresses will be allowed to connect.
316If not defined, there will be no restrictions based on initiator
317address.
318This clause is mutually exclusive with
319.Sy auth-group ;
320one cannot use
321both in a single target.
322.Pp
323The
324.Sy auth-type ,
325.Sy chap ,
326.Sy chap-mutual ,
327.Sy initiator-name ,
328and
329.Sy initiator-portal
330clauses in the target context provide an alternative to assigning an
331.Sy auth-group
332defined separately, useful in the common case of authentication settings
333specific to a single target.
334.It Ic portal-group Ar name Op Ar ag-name
335Assign a previously defined portal group to the target.
336The default portal group is
337.Qq Ar default ,
338which makes the target available
339on TCP port 3260 on all configured IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
340Optional second argument specifies
341.Sy auth-group
342for connections to this specific portal group.
343If second argument is not specified, target
344.Sy auth-group
345is used.
346.It Ic port Ar name
347.It Ic port Ar name/pp
348.It Ic port Ar name/pp/vp
349Assign specified CTL port (such as "isp0" or "isp2/1") to the target.
350This is used to export the target through a specific physical - eg Fibre
351Channel - port, in addition to portal-groups configured for the target.
352Use
353.Cm "ctladm portlist"
354command to retrieve the list of available ports.
355On startup
356.Xr ctld 8
357configures LUN mapping and enables all assigned ports.
358Each port can be assigned to only one target.
359.It Ic redirect Ar address
360IPv4 or IPv6 address to redirect initiators to.
361When configured, all initiators attempting to connect to this target
362will get redirected using "Target moved temporarily" login response.
363Redirection happens after successful authentication.
364.It Ic lun Ar number Ar name
365Export previously defined
366.Sy lun
367by the parent target.
368.It Ic lun Ar number
369Create a
370.Sy lun
371configuration context, defining a LUN exported by the parent target.
372.Pp
373This is an alternative to defining the LUN separately, useful in the common
374case of a LUN being exported by a single target.
375.El
376.Ss lun Context
377.Bl -tag -width indent
378.It Ic backend Ar block No | Ar ramdisk
379The CTL backend to use for a given LUN.
380Valid choices are
381.Qq Ar block
382and
383.Qq Ar ramdisk ;
384block is used for LUNs backed
385by files or disk device nodes; ramdisk is a bitsink device, used mostly for
386testing.
387The default backend is block.
388.It Ic blocksize Ar size
389The blocksize visible to the initiator.
390The default blocksize is 512.
391.It Ic ctl-lun Ar lun_id
392Global numeric identifier to use for a given LUN inside CTL.
393By default CTL allocates those IDs dynamically, but explicit specification
394may be needed for consistency in HA configurations.
395.It Ic device-id Ar string
396The SCSI Device Identification string presented to the initiator.
397.It Ic device-type Ar type
398Specify the SCSI device type to use when creating the LUN.
399Currently CTL supports Direct Access (type 0), Processor (type 3)
400and CD/DVD (type 5) LUNs.
401.It Ic option Ar name Ar value
402The CTL-specific options passed to the kernel.

407.It Ic path Ar path
408The path to the file, device node, or
409.Xr zfs 8

413property set.
414.It Ic serial Ar string
415The SCSI serial number presented to the initiator.
416.It Ic size Ar size
