Methods and apparatus are provided for authenticating an iSCSI initiator connected to a fibre channel storage area network. An iSCSI initiator performs an authentication exchange with a fibre channel target such as a fibre channel host or disk array through one or more fibre channel switches. Authentication information such as password information no longer is required at fibre channel switches and can instead be aggregated at fibre channel targets.
