Enabling Security

With security turned on, only administrator users can view or change settings on the Iomega StorCenter ix4-200d, including creating or deleting users and
Shares. When you create users, you limit access to your Iomega StorCenter ix4-200d to specific people, and when you secure Shares, you limit data access to
specific users.
1. On the Security page, click the switch on.
2. When you turn security on, you will be asked to create an administrator user. Provide a username and password, and then confirm your password. Click
Encrypt network communication using SSL.
When security is turned on, browser communications with the Iomega StorCenter ix4-200d are encrypted. Therefore, each computer
that attempts to access the Iomega StorCenter ix4-200d may encounter a security warning, which can be safely ignored. In addition, you
may be asked to accept a signed certificate for the Iomega StorCenter ix4-200d, which you should accept. If you change the device name
at a later date, these warnings may appear again.
Iomega StorCenter ix4-200d administrators do not have access to all Shares by default. Access rights to Shares must be granted explicitly to
administrators, as with other users.
