The following table describes the labels on the screen:
Shared Workspace The name of the workspace you wish to share.
You can choose an existing workspace or create
a new one. Find your Workspace by using the
drop down option or you can use the search fea-
ture to locate the Workspace desired. The NFS
share will be accessible at /export/ when your
NFS client is pointed to the share.
Client This defines the scope of network access to the
NFS share. You can limit or expand access to the
NFS share by setting these parameters.
•
The most limiting parameter would be to
type in an exact IP address. An example of
this is setting of 192.168.0.12 and by doing
so you would limit the NFS share to exactly
the one computer that had that IP address.
• The next level of access is to provide access
to all computers on a specific subnet. An
example of this is a setting of 192.168.0.0/24
and by doing so you would limit the NFS
share to all computers that have a mat-
ching subnet. This means all computers
with IP addresses in the 192.168.0.0 to
192.168.0.254 range would be able to
mount this NFS share.
• Finally, the least restrictive setting available
for this Client parameter is leaving it blank.
If you leave it blank then any computer that
can negotiate traffic to the IP address of the
G-RACK 12 will have access to the NFS share.
You will only want to use this in networks
where outside traffic is limited by other
means such as a secure firewall.
