Testing iSCSI Authentication

Before enabling iSCSI authentication for a SCSI routing instance, you can test
iSCSI authentication from the storage router. The user name and password are
passed to AAA authentication, which performs authentication using the iSCSI
default authentication list. The command response indicates a pass or fail status.

To test iSCSI authentication:

1. enable — Enter Administrator mode.

2. aaa test authentication iscsi default labserver foo

and aaa test authentication iscsi default labserver2
foo2

— Test the user names and passwords listed in the username database.

AAA authentication uses the services in the default list for authentication.

Example 12: Testing Authentication

*

[SR2122-2-MG1]# aaa test authentication iscsi default labserver foo

Sep 02 14:37:00:aaa:AS_NOTICE :Auth test request being
queued

Sep 02 14:37:00:aaa:AS_NOTICE :Auth test request complete,
status = pass

Enabling iSCSI Authentication

iSCSI authentication is not enabled.

in the default AAA authentication list:

2. scsirouter zeus authenticate yes

— Enable authentication for

the named SCSI routing instance. For example, enable authentication for the
