19.1.1 What You Need To Know
The following terms and concepts may help as you read this chapter.
Workgroup name
This is the name given to a set of computers that are connected on a network and share resources such
as a printer or files. Windows automatically assigns the workgroup name when you set up a network.
Shares
When settings are set to default, each USB device connected to the SBG is given a folder, called a
"share". If a USB hard drive connected to the SBG has more than one partition, then each partition will
be allocated a share. You can also configure a "share" to be a sub-folder or file on the USB device.
