Buffalo TS5400R0804 [56/176] Disconnecting and unregistering the terastation

The connected volume is added as a local drive in Computer (or My Computer). Repeat these steps on each

computer to connect multiple volumes.

Note: If using Windows XP or Windows 2000, use LVM to create volumes that are 2 TB or smaller.

Mutual Authentication with the TeraStation

The TeraStation can perform mutual authentication (two-way authentication). Dual passwords ensure that only

authorized client computers can access the volume on the TeraStation.

Mutual Authentication Password Setup for the TeraStation

In Settings, navigate to Drives - iSCSI - Security - Access Restrictions for Entire System - Edit - Access Restrictions. Click

Mutual Authentication and set a mutual authentication password.

Mutual Authentication Password Setup for Individual Volumes

In Settings, navigate to Drives - iSCSI - Create Volume. Enable access restrictions and mutual authentication. Set the

mutual authentication password that will be required to connect to each volume.

Mutual Authentication Password Setup for Your Computer

Each computer that connects to an iSCSI volume will need to enter the mutual authentication password for the

volume. A computer cannot connect to multiple volumes with different mutual authentication passwords at the

same time. To change the mutual authentication password at the computer to the mutual authentication password

for another volume, navigate to Setup - Set Mutual CHAP Secret in the iSCSI Connection Tool menu.

Note: If different passwords are set for the mutual authentication password of the TeraStation (entire system)

and mutual authentication passwords for each volume, after the volume is connected, the volume name will no

longer be displayed in the "Volume" field of the iSCSI Connection Tool. If this happens, navigate to Setup - Set

Mutual CHAP Secret in the iSCSI Connection Tool, enter the TeraStation's password, and click OK.
