| chapIName | Login for CHAP authentication. |
| chapSecret | Secret for CHAP authentication. |
| tgtChapName | Target login for Mutual CHAP authentication. |
| tgtChapSecret | Target secret for Mutual CHAP authentication. |
| HeaderDigest | Sets the header digest; a checksum calculated over the header of iSCSI PDUs, and verified on receive. Digest can be either "None", or "CRC32C". Default is "None". |
| DataDigest | Sets the data digest; a checksum calculated over the Data Section of iSCSI PDUs, and verified on receive. Digest can be either "None", or "CRC32C". Default is "None". |
| InitiatorName | Sets the initiator name. By default, the name is concatenation of "iqn.1994-09.org.freebsd:" with the hostname. |
| TargetName | Sets the target name. Not required for discovery sessions. |
| TargetAddress | Sets the target address and port, in address[:port] format. The address can be either an IP address, or hostname. The optional port defaults to 3260. |
| SessionType | Sets the session type. Type can be either "Discovery", or "Normal". Default is "Normal". For normal sessions, the TargetName must be defined. Discovery sessions result in the initiator connecting to all the targets returned by SendTargets iSCSI discovery with the defined TargetAddress. |
| Enable | Enable or disable the session. State can be either "On", or "Off". Default is "On". |
| Offload | Name of selected iSCSI hardware offload driver. Default is "None". |
| Protocol | Name of selected protocol. It can be either "iSER", for iSCSI over RDMA, or "iSCSI". Default is "iSCSI". |
| dscp | The DiffServ Codepoint used for sending data. The DSCP can be set to numeric, or hexadecimal values directly, as well as the well-defined "cs<n>" and "af<xx>" codepoints. Default is no specified dscp codepoint, which means the default of the outgoing interface is used. |
