Share Access

The Share Access page allows you to manage workgroup users when the DXi9000 Series is joined to a Windows workgroup, or manage share administrators when the DXi9000 Series is joined to a Windows domain using Active Directory. You can add users or administrators, change user privileges, and delete users or administrators. Available users or administrators can be granted access to NAS shares configured for the CIFS/SMB protocol.

Note: You must join a Windows workgroup (or create a new workgroup by naming it on the DXi) or domain before you can add workgroup users or share administrators. The Share Access page is different depending on whether the DXi is joined to a workgroup or domain. See Windows Domain.

To access the Share Access page, on the NAS page, click the Share Access tab.
