Which CHAP authentication mechanisms are only available when using software and dependent hardware iSCSI adapters (Choose Two)?
A. Mutual CHAP
B. Per-subnet CHAP
C. Per-target CHAP
D. One-way CHAP
Correct Answer: AC
Explanation/Reference:
Key word is only as one way chap is supported on both independent and dependent adapters.
Per-target CHAP
For software and dependent hardware iSCSI adapters, ESXi also supports per-target CHAP authentication, which allows you to configure different credentials for each target to achieve greater level of security.
Mutual CHAP
In mutual CHAP authentication, also called bidirectional, an additional level of security enables the initiator to authenticate the target. VMware supports this method for software and dependent hardware iSCSI adapters only.
