                                 userLabel”)

Parameters

Parameter	Description
`iscsiTarget`	The iSCSI target for which you want to set properties. Enclose the name in double quotation marks (“ ”). You must also enclose the iscsi ID in either square brackets ([ ]) or angle brackets (< >).
`authenticationMethod`	The means of authenticating your iSCSI session.
`chapSecret`	The password that you want to use to authenticate a peer connection.
`targetAlias`	The name that you want to use for the target.

NOTE: Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) is a protocol that authenticates the peer of a connection. CHAP is based upon the peers sharing a “secret.” A secret is a security key that is similar to a password.

NOTE: Use the chapSecret parameter only for initiators requiring mutual authentication.

NOTE: The targetAlias is a descriptive name that you can give to the target to help make it easier to identify. You can use any combination of alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores for the targetAlias. The targetAlias can have a maximum of 30 characters.
