Creating a Windows User Account on the AirSpeed Multi Stream
When configuring your shared storage, it might be good practice to create a Windows user
account (with Admin rights) with an AirSpeed Multi Stream user name and matching
password (recommended Avid1234) that is consistent with an Interplay and ISIS user name
and password.

The password does not have to be the same for all three (AirSpeed Multi Stream, ISIS, and
Interplay). It should be the same for AirSpeed Multi Stream and ISIS, but the Interplay user
name and password can be different depending on security for your site.
