Creating Share Permissions for AD Users and Local Users
You can create access permissions for both AD and local users on any new or existing Shares on your ix2.
For more information, see adding Shares and managing Shares.
Switching to Workgroup Mode from Active Directory
You can switch your ix2 from AD mode to Workgroup.
1. On the Device Identification page, select Workgroup.
2. Click Apply.
After changing to Workgroup mode, if there are any administrator users on your ix2, you are required to log
back in to the ix2. You must log in as a local user, and you do not have the choice to select an AD domain.
Also, the Users and Groups page no longer lists the AD users and groups.
If you had not enabled security on your ix2 prior to changing from Workgroup to Active Directory,
your ix2 did not have any local users. Security is automatically enabled when you configure AD.
When you switch back to Workgroup, the Switch to Workgroup Mode dialog box displays. You
must create an administrator user because security is not disabled by switching back to
Workgroup. After creating the admin user, you remain logged in to the ix2.
