Naming Your ix2 Network Storage
You can provide a meaningful name for your ix2 using the Device Identification page. This page in the ix2
Management Console enables you to change the Storage Device Name, the Storage Device Descriptive
Name, and the Workgroup Name.
Change any of these by editing the text fields. Click Apply to save your changes.
Device Name: Enter a name for the ix2 device. Use a name that will help you identify it on your
network.
Device Descriptive Name: Enter a descriptive name for the ix2 device. This name can provide
additional detail that identifies the device. If you leave this field blank, the default device name is
used.
Workgroup Name: Enter a workgroup name for the ix2 device if you need to change the default
name. The workgroup name identifies a group of computers that share information with each
other. Change the workgroup name only if you explicitly define a workgroup on your network.
Most users won't need to change the workgroup name, unless they have explicitly defined a
different workgroup on their other computers.
Renaming the ix2 will require a device restart.
Setting up Active Directory
If your ix2 supports Active Directory, you configure AD on the Device Identification page. Refer to
Configuring Your ix2 for Active Directory.
