To access an available iSCSI Target:

Note: The appearance of the screens depends on the operating system version.
  1. Navigate to the iSCSI Initiator Properties on your Windows system.
  2. Open the iSCSI Initiator Properties dialog.
  3. Select the Targets tab.
  4. Select a target.
  5. Click Log On to display the Log On to Target dialog.
    Note: Each logon starts an iSCSI session, and a maximum of 32 iSCSI sessions are allowed per Target.
  6. Click OK to log on to the target.
  7. If authentication is enabled on the target, click Advanced... to open the General tab in the Advanced Settings dialog.
    1. Select the CHAP logon information checkbox and enter the Target secret (the password configured when the iSCSI target was created).
    2. If mutual authentication has been configured, select the Perform mutual authentication checkbox.
    3. Click OK to save the settings and return to the return to the Log On to Target dialog.
  8. Optionally, configure multi-pathing.

    If multi-pathing is supported by the Microsoft iSCSI initiator, and you want to use multiple paths to the target, fill the Enable multi-path checkbox.

    To create multiple paths to the target, you must later start another session to the target.

  9. Establish the connection.

    Click OK to establish the connection to the selected target.
