Enabling Active Directory Trusted Domains

By enabling Active Directory trusted domains on your px2-300d, you enable the importing of users
and groups from other trusted domains to your px2-300d device. Those users and groups from other
domains will then have access to features on your px2-300d, including accessing folders and
documents in Shares, and joining any Personal Cloud of which the device is a member.
Now that you have enabled access to all trusted domains, you can add users and groups from those
trusted domains to your px2-300d. For more information, refer to
Active Directory.
