• Easy to follow and implement.
• Easy to remember.
Using a combination of the user's first name, middle initial, and last name results in systematic usernames

John Doe).
Guidelines must be in place for instances when two users have the same initials or name. For example, a
number can be added to the end of the username (jdoe1 and jdoe2).

"Data Users ROnly" group and a "Data Users RWrite" group to contain users that have read only
or read write access on the share, respectively.

In a workgroup environment, local users and groups are managed through the WebUI of the storage
server.
