• Join the DXi4000 to a Windows workgroup (see Joining a Windows
Workgroup on page 145).
• Join the DXi4000 to a Windows domain (see Joining a Windows
Domain on page 145).
• Remove the DXi4000 from a Windows workgroup or domain (see
Disjoining a Workgroup or Domain on page 147).
Joining a Windows Workgroup
Join a Windows workgroup to add the DXi4000 to a workgroup on a
Windows network. After you join a workgroup, CIFS shares are available
for use on the Windows network.
To join a Windows workgroup:
1 Enter the following information about the Windows domain:
• Domain Type - Select Workgroup.
• Domain/Workgroup Name - Enter the workgroup name.
The workgroup name can be the name of an existing
workgroup or a new workgroup (for example, Workgroup or
Sales ).
2 Click Apply .
Note: When an SMB server is joined to a workgroup, share security is
managed directly from the remote management console. For a
CIFS share, security is provided through the read only or read/
write access to the share. By default, when a CIFS share is
created, the default security setting allows access for all users.
Any access restrictions on individual users can be managed by
editing a share on the NAS Summary page (see Editing a NAS
Share on page 142).
Joining a Windows Domain
Join a Windows domain to add the DXi4000 to a Windows network
using Active Directory. After you join a domain, CIFS shares are available
for use on the Windows network.
Before joining a Windows domain, make sure the date and time on the
DXi4000 is correct and is synchronized with the Active Directory Services
