UPnP:
This feature allows your d2 Network 2 to act as a UPnP
multimedia server. Files stored in shares where UPnP service is
active will be available to play on UPnP-enabled players (such
as cell phones, computers, and game consoles). For informa-
tion on using your d2 Network 2 to stream files to your UPnP
devices, see
3.7. Multimedia Server
. For information on using
the d2 Network 2 as an iTunes music server, see section

Time Machine:
The d2 Network 2 is compatible with Apple’s
Time Machine, which backs up your Macintosh onto an exter-
nal volume at regular intervals.
TECHNICAL NOTE:
If you’ve just added new content to the d2
Network 2, it could take a few minutes before they are available to
UPnP/DLNA-certified players/adapters.
4.6.1. Active Directory
This feature allows you to join the d2 Network 2 to a Windows do-
main. Once connected, existing users/passwords in the domain are
respected by the d2 Network 2 and treated exactly as if they were
created in the Dashboard. You can use the Users page to assign
domain users access to the d2 Network 2’s shares.
To connect to a share, click the
Domain
box, then fill in the Fully
Qualified Domain Name, Admin login, and Admin password. For
more complex network configurations, click the
Advanced Criteria
arrow and fill in the Server name and IP address (
Fig. 43
).
To leave the domain, click the
Leave
button, then authenticate by
inputting admin username and password (
Fig. 44
).
Once connected, you should see the domain’s associated users in
the Dashboard’s Users page (these users will be identified by the
word
Domain
in place of password).
