CIFS and FTP Clients
28
A client uses mechanisms specific to the operating system to display, create, and delete files
within the Avid ISIS shared storage network system. For example, when viewed from a
Windows operating system, the system sees a server containing many shares that are mapped to
drive letters.
CIFS and FTP Clients
The ISIS 2000 also includes a File Gateway providing unlimited Common Internet File System
(CIFS) clients, without using Avid ISIS client licenses. This client connection enables network
users to access the ISIS Workspaces in a non-realtime scenario. Depending on the access
permission, network users can read, write, and delete files on Workspaces without using ISIS
client licenses. For instructions on setting up CIFS clients see,
“Configuring the Server for CIFS
Access” on page 111 .

Only System Directors with a 10 Gb connection to the switch support CIFS and FTP clients.
When using a 1 Gb connection between the ISIS 2000 System Director and the switch, you must
turn off the CIFS service after you have installed the ISIS 2000 software. Disable the CIFS
service as described in
“Turning Off the CIFS Service With a 1 Gb Connected System Director”
on page 79 .
A client uses mechanisms specific to the operating system to display, create, and delete files
within the Avid ISIS shared storage network system. For example, when viewed from a
Windows operating system, the system sees a server containing many shares that are mapped to
drive letters. The maximum number of Workspaces that can be shared out as a CIFS share is 22
Workspaces.
You can also configure the System Director to share ISIS Workspaces over the network using the
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) function controlled by the Microsoft’s Internet Information
Services (IIS) and the FTP Service. For instructions on setting up FTP clients see,
“Configuring
the Server for FTP Access” on page 116 .
Network Zone Configurations
All clients in the shared storage network are classified by zones, depending on how they connect
to the network. The following list defines the clients in each network layer by their zone
classification:
