To enable or disable advanced SMB settings:
1 Select the check box to enable, or clear the check box to disable, the
following settings:
• Enable Opportunistic Locking - (Enabled by default)
Opportunistic locking lets clients lock files and locally cache
information without the risk of another user changing the file.
This increases performance for many file operations, but it may
decrease performance in other operations because the server
that grants the opportunistic lock must manage the breaking of
that lock when another user requests access to the file.
Note:
System performance may decrease if
Opportunistic
Locking
is disabled.
•
Enable SMB Server signing
- (Disabled by default) SMB server
signing improves security on Windows networks by requiring
clients to provide a security signature to connect to a server. If
the DXi4701 is joined to a Windows domain that is configured
to require signing, you should enable SMB server signing.
