containing an Address bar.
Network addressing uses the Uniform Naming Convention (UNC) format.
This format looks like the following:
\\device name\share name. In this example, HPMediaVault is the device
name, and Documents is the shared folder or "share name." (For those
more familiar with networking terms, the word "Share" is often used
instead of "shared folder.")
Note: The server comes pre-configured with the name: HPMediaVault.
To change the name of your server, see Change the name of your HP
