.Nm iscsi.conf
.Nd iSCSI initiator configuration file
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The file
.Nm ,
is used by the
The
.Nm
configuration file is used by the
.Xr iscsictl 8
and
.Xr iscontrol 8
utilities.
It contains declarations and parameter/key-options.
The syntax is very simple,
.D1 Li variable = value;
and they can be grouped via a
.Em block
declaration:
The general syntax is:
.Bf Li
.Bd -literal
# this is a comment
target_1 { # nickname
nickname_1 {
variable = value;
...
} # this must be on a line by itself.
}
nickname_2 {
variable = value;
...
}

The following are specified in the iSCSI RFC 3720,
for a full description see sections 11/12 of the RFC.
.Bl -tag -width MaxConnections
.It Cm AuthMethod
currently only supported authentication method is CHAP, with
digest either MD5 or SHA.
Default is none.
.It Cm HeaderDigest
a
.Em digest
is calculated on the header of all iSCSI PDUs, and
checked.
Only CRC32C is implemented.
Default is none.
.It Cm DataDigest
same as for HeaderDigest, but on the data part of the iSCSI PDU.
(not yet tested)
.It Cm TargetName
is the name by which the target is known, not to be confused with
target address, either obtained via the target administrator, or
from a
.Em discovery session .
.It Cm InitiatorName
if not specified, defaults to
.Sy iqn.2005-01.il.ac.huji.cs:
.Aq hostname .
.It Cm TargetAddress
is of the form
.Sy domainname[:port][,portal-group-tag]
to quote the RFC:
.Bd -ragged -compact
The domainname can be specified as either a DNS host name, a
dotted-decimal IPv4 address, or a bracketed IPv6 address as specified
in [RFC2732].
.Ed
Note: portal-group-tag is unused at the moment.
.Em not implemented yet.
.It Cm MaxRecvDataSegmentLength
the maximum data segment length in
bytes it can receive in an iSCSI PDU, default is 8192.
.It Cm MaxOutstandingR2T
is used to calculate/negotiate the
.Em tag opening ,
can be overridden by the
.Sy tag
option.
.It Cm SessionType
either Discovery or Normal, default is Normal, see the
.Fl d
flag of
.Cm iscontrol .
.El
.sp
The following are not specified in the
.Sy RFC 3720
.Bl -tag -width sockbufsize
.It Cm offload
Name of selected iSCSI hardware offload driver.
.It Cm port
The iSCSI port used by the iSCSI protocol, defaults to 3260.
.It Cm tags
Sets the
.Em tag opening
to the value specified.
.It Cm maxluns
overrides the compiled value of
.Sy luns ,
see
.Xr iscsi_initiator 4 .
This value can only be reduced.
.It Cm sockbufsize
sets the receiver and transmitter socket buffer size to
.Em size ,
in kilobytes.
The default is 128.
.El
.sp
If
.Em AuthMethod
is set to
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 ,
then the following must also be set:
.Bl -tag -width chapSecret
.It Cm chapSecret
this
.Em shared-secret .
Can be either an ASCII string (e.g. hello world), a hex string (e.g
0xababcd0987654321...), or base64 string (eg 0b...)
both
.Cm chapIName
and
.Cm chapSecret
must be defined.
.It Cm chapIName
the chap-name, defaults to
.Em hostname .
.It Cm chapDigest
can be MD5 or SHA1.
.It Cm tgtChapName/tgtChapSecret
name and secret used for mutual CHAP; by default, mutual CHAP
is not used.
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 TargetName
Sets the target name.
Not required for discovery sessions.
.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 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 .
