As
administrator, you must create usernames for each user. You must also assign one
of the following three
privilege levels for every user, for every Shared Folder
on the media vault:
Full access
Read
-
only access
No access
You can switch out of
this mode by going to the
Network Settings
tab and selecting
another mode.
Why switch to user
-
based mode?
Let's say you store all
your financial files on the media vault. All your network users store their
music files to the
media vault so that they can download songs only once from
the Internet. But you don't want all your network
users to have access to your
financial files. In this case, you would create separate usernames for each
user
giving them "Full access" to the Shared Folders containing
music. You would then assign "No access" to these
users on Shared
Folders that contain financial files. (See
Organize
your files
.)
User
-
based
mode requires a more thorough understanding of the media vault's networking
features,
and occasional maintenance of changes. Before deciding to enable
User
-
based access mode, make
sure that you understand the configuration screens.
Before enabling this mode, read through each
topic in the
Configure your HP Media Vault
section.
