Domain
This option is available for networks that have an Active Domain server for user control. A
domain is a group of computers under the control of a server known as the domain
controller. In the case of the Sentinel DX4000, it enhances security by allowing only users
with necessary permissions to access the server. Refer to Microsoft Online Help for detailed
information. For information on acceptable domains, go to http://support.wdc.com and
