The following example specifies a load-balancing metric for the iSLB initiator:


switch# config t
switch(config)# islb initiator ip-address 100.10.10.10
switch (config-islb-init)# metric 100

The iSLB initiator can authenticate the Cisco MDS switch’s initiator target during the iSCSI login phase. This authentication requires the user to configure a username and password for the switch to present to the iSLB initiator. The provided password is used to calculate a CHAP response to a CHAP challenge sent to the IPS port by the initiator.

switch# config terminal 
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
switch(config)# iscsi initiator name iqn.1987-02.com.cisco.initiator
switch(config-iscsi-init)# mutual-chap username userName password 0 cisco
switch(config-iscsi-init)# mutual-chap username userNameTest password 0 test
switch(config-iscsi-init)#

The following example assigns a username and password to the initiator’s challenge for an iSLB initiator:


switch# config t
switch(config)# islb initiator ip-address 100.10.10.10
switch (config-islb-init)# mutual-chap username tester password K9c4*1

The following example removes the username and password from the initiator’s challenge for an iSLB initiator:
