AdditionalInformation
When the system is joined to the Active Directory domain, share security is managed by the MMC
(Microsoft Management Console) that is running on the domain controller. By default, when a CIFS/SMB
share is created, the default security setting allows access for all users. Any access restrictions on
individual users must be managed from the MMC.
Disjoining a Workgroup or Domain
Disjoin a workgroup or a domain to remove the DXi6900 from a Windows workgroup or domain. After you
disjoin the workgroup or domain, CIFS/SMB shares are no longer available for use on the Windows network
To disjoin a workgroup or domain, click Disjoin.
Share Access
The ShareAccess page allows you to manage workgroup users when the DXi6900 is joined to a Windows
workgroup, or manage share administrators when the DXi6900 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.
