I looked at the guide you provided a link to and I don't see anywhere in the document how to find out what the HostNQN is for the StarWind Initiator. None of the commands in your CLI for the StarWind NVMe-oF Initiator appear to provide that information. I need the HostNQN of the Windows Host in order to add it to the allowed_host list in my NVMeoF target configuration.

Greetings,
1. Acquire the list of available controllers
Code: Select all
StarNVMeoF_Ctrl.exe discovery <target_ip_addr> <local_ip_addr>
2. Connect
Code: Select all
StarNVMeoF_Ctrl.exe insert <target_ip_addr[:port]> <local_ip_addr> <SubNQN> <HostNQN>
HostNQN can be a custom identifier you chose.
3. Confirm connection

I do not see my HostNQN as well. (Is not iSCSI, as well your example is not working)
Is there no way to just show it (registry?), the discovery is working for targets, but where is my HostNQN?? Please...

Welcome to StarWind Forum.
Host NQN is an optional parameter and needed only if there is any authentication set up on target level.
