Once the RAID is ready, you can begin to create local users for the N8800, or
choose to setup authentication protocols such as Active Directory (AD).
For more on managing users, go to Chapter 4: System Management > User
and Group Management.
For more information on configuring Active Directory, see Chapter 4: System

folders on the N8800 and control user access to each using Folder Access Control
Lists.
More information on managing folders, see Chapter 4: System Management >
Folder Management.
To find out about configuring Folder Access Control Lists, see Chapter 4: System
Management > Folder Management > Folder Access Control List (ACL).
