Advanced Settings
Network (Workgroup/Domain)
If you do not participate in a Domain/Active directory
network, then please leave the
Network Type
selected as
Workgroup
and
Workgroup Name
set to the name of your
local workgroup.
To make your LinkStation a member of a workgroup or
an NT domain, enter the appropriate information into the
fields on this page and click
Apply
.
If using
NT Domain
or
Active Directory
, LinkStation must be
added as a member computer in the Domain Server.
Setting
NT Domain
or
Active Directory
for network type
integrates the LinkStation with a server. The LinkStation
Pro participates as a member device in the Domain and
Active Directory networks, allowing the LinkStation to use
Users and Groups that reside on the Domain or Active
Directory System. If Active Directory is used, then the
LinkStation will automatically receive update information from the domain controller(s). To configure the
LinkStation Pro on an Active Directory network, you must have the Domain Administrator login credentials.
Enter the Domain Name and Domain Controller into the appropriate fields. In an Active Directory
environment, check the Active Directory Domain checkbox and fill in the remaining fields. The Authentication
Setup fields will be automatically filled out, so no input is needed there. Once you have finished, press
Apply
.
