Network Attached
Storage (NAS)
The DXi8500 system has the ability to present itself as NAS backup
systems (see Figure 5 ) where the following protocols are supported:
• CIFS Protocol
• NFS Protocol
CIFS Protocol
The CIFS (Common Internet File System) protocol defines a standard for
remote file access from many computers at a time in Windows
environments. This protocol allows users with different platforms to
share files without installing additional software.
Active Directory Support
The DXi8500 supports ADS (Active Directory Services) as well as ACLs
(Access Control Lists). This provides the following benefits:
• Compatibility with CIFS domains - NAS shares are able to join CIFS
domains and use domain authentication.
• Precise control of file system permissions - Administrators can
specify which users and groups can perform what actions.
• Robust administrative support - Administrators have the same
implicit permissions as they do in Windows operating systems.
Note: Windows 2003, Windows 2003 R2, Windows 2008, and
Windows 2008 R2 are supported for Active Directory domain
membership.
Note: When you create a CIFS share, the initial permissions are the
same as the default permissions for a Windows 2003 share
with the addition of an ACE (Access Control Entry) that permits
full access to the share for all authenticated users.
Administrators can choose to remove this full access ACE, set
up custom permissions, or leave the ACL (Access Control List)
as is if the server is set up in a fully trusted environment.
