In order to create CHAP a user, enter the Name (username) and define the Target secret (user password).

Next, retype the password and click the Add New User button.

The password must consist of at least 12 characters and cannot contain whitespace characters.

Username cannot:

  • contain the following special characters ~ ! @ # $ ^ & ( ) + [ ] { } * ; : ' " ., ; % | < > ? / \ = ` ,
  • begin or end with a space,

Password cannot:

  • contain the following special characters ' " `,
  • contain spaces.

You need to create at least one CHAP user for a target, otherwise it won't be accessible to anyone.

NOTE : 

If users forget their password, there is no way to retrieve it. You can only set a new password.
