Domain Security Mode; Domain/Ads Authentication - Infrant Technologies Readynas User Manual

Domain Security Mode

► D O M A I N / A D S A U T H E N T I C A T I O N
If you choose the Domain security mode option, you will need to create a trusted relationship with
the domain controller or the active directory server (ADS) that will act as the authentication server
for the ReadyNAS device. You will need the following information:
Domain name
Domain administrator login
Domain administrator password
DNS name of the ADS realm (if using ADS)
You can elect to have the ReadyNAS automatically auto-detect the domain controller, or you can
specify the IP address. Sometimes auto-detect will fail, and you will need to supply the IP address of
the domain controller to join the domain.
If you have a large number of users in your domain, you may need to deselect the Display users
from trusted domains... checkbox. Otherwise, FrontView management system may slow down
to an unusable state.
Note
Use of the ReadyNAS in a domain environment with more than 1000 users
is not recommended at this time.
