Configuring Your LenovoEMC Personal Cloud
As a LenovoEMC Personal Cloud administrator, you can manage various settings on your Personal Cloud
to ensure that it functions as efficiently as possible. Settings include specifying an email address when
sending invitations. When data is traveling through the Personal Cloud, you can control the security of that
information by specifying a Secure Communication level. Note that data stored on your px4-400d through
the Personal Cloud is not encrypted, and using encryption can slow down communications.
Enabling Internet Access to the px4-400d
You can grant internet users, including LenovoEMC Link users, secure access to the px4-400d web
interface and unrestricted access to media content on your px4-400d. LenovoEMC Link is an application
that runs on mobile devices, and allows access to content on your px4-400d.
Before enabling secure access, you must first create users on your px4-400d and set access permissions
to Shares. After enabling secure access, any internet users can access your px4-400d home page, and
view any unsecured content (that is content in Shares you have explicitly made public by setting access
permissions for Everyone). Content on secured Shares is restricted to users who have valid usernames
and passwords for the px4-400d.
If you enable media sharing for any Shares on your px4-400d, media files in those Shares become
available to all internet users.
Changing Personal Cloud Settings
1. In the Configure section of the Personal Cloud page, click Settings.
2. In the Personal Cloud Settings dialog box, configure the following:
●
Administration Email Address — This is the sender email address used on the email
invitations.
●
Port Number — Your router forwards this specific port for your Personal Cloud. This value is
automatically filled in, and you do not have to change it, unless you have more than one
Personal Cloud on your network. Refer to
Configuring Router Port Forwarding for Personal
Cloud for more information.
●
Secure Communication — This setting controls the security of information traveling through
the Personal Cloud.
You can also specify a Secure Communication level setting with LenovoEMC Storage
Manager. The Secure Communication setting in the px4-400d device management console
sets the minimum value. You cannot specify a setting lower than this value using LenovoEMC
Storage Manager. For information on using LenovoEMC Storage Manager, refer to its online
help.
●
Enable unrestricted access to media content— This setting makes all media files in media-
enabled Shares available to anyone on the internet accessing your px4-400d, even if those
media files are in secured Shares. For more information on making a Share media-enabled,
refer to
changing Share information .
