The Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) is used with iSCSI on an ESX Server to provide which of the following?
A.
Bi-directional Target authentication
B.
Initiator authentication
C.
LUN Group authentication
D.
Storage Processor authentication
Explanation:
iSCSI SAN Configuration Guide ESX 4.0 ESXi 4.0 vCenter Server 4.0, page 37.Because the IP networks that the iSCSI technology uses to connect to remote targets do not protect the data they transport, you must ensure security of the connection. iSCSI requires that all devices on the network implement Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP), which verifies the legitimacy of initiators that access targets on the network.
