To configure mutual CHAP on a Windows client
In this procedure, you configure CHAP in the Microsoft iSCSI initiator using the same keys that you used
to configure CHAP for the volume on the console.
1. If the iSCSI initiator is not already started, on the Start menu of your Windows client computer,
choose Run, type iscsicpl.exe, and then choose OK to run the program.
2. Configure mutual CHAP configuration for the initiator (that is, the Windows client):
a. Choose the Configuration tab.
Note
The Initiator Name value is unique to your initiator and company. The name shown
preceding is the value that you used in the Configure CHAP Authentication dialog box
of the AWS Storage Gateway console.
The name shown in the example image is for demonstration purposes only.
b. Choose CHAP.
c. In the iSCSI Initiator Mutual Chap Secret dialog box, type the mutual CHAP secret value.
