Configuring Your px12-400r Network Storage to Use
Active Directory
If you have an existing Active Directory user organization, you can incorporate it into the px12-400r device
management interface. Your px12-400r can work in a high availability environment, which means it can
work with multiple AD servers should one server fail or go offline.
Follow the instructions below to configure your px12-400r to use Active Directory.
1. Manually set the DNS server for the px12-400r:
Open the Network feature. Uncheck Automatically configure all network settings, type the IP
address of your DNS Server in the text box, and click Apply to save your settings.
2. Configure the px12-400r to join the Active Directory domain:
Open the Domain Management feature and click ON to enable Active Directory.
3. Provide the following connectivity information for the existing AD user organization that you want
to incorporate into the px12-400r:
●
Domain Name — the fully qualified domain name of your Active Directory domain, for
example, sohoad.com.
●
Preferred Server — optionally enter the actual name or IP address of your Active Directory
Server, for example, ad-server.sohoad.com or 10.14.50.12. If this field is left blank, the px12-
400r will use the DNS setting (step 1) to resolve the AD Server (also called "Domain
Controller").
●
Organizational Unit — an optional predefined subset of directory objects within an Active
Directory domain, where the computer object for the px12-400r will be created in the domain.
●
Administrator Username — the Active Directory username with domain administrator
privilege, or enough privilege to join client computers to the domain.
●
Administrator Password — the Active Directory password for the specified Active Directory
username.
●
Users/Groups Refresh Interval — how often the px12-400r should refresh the list of available
users and groups from the Active Directory server.
●
Local Network Encryption (SSL) — enforces encryption on your local network.
●
Remote Network Encryption (SSL) — enforces encryption outside your local network, such
as through the internet. Choices for both encryption types are Not required and Always
(encryption is always enforced). Always encrypting communication is safest, but can impact
performance.
●
Enable trusted domains — enables your px12-400r to allow access to other domains.
4. Click Apply to save your settings.
