4.3. Groups

Click on the Groups link in the navigation bar to open the Groups

page ( Fig. 40 ). Use this page to create, edit and delete groups.

If you use your 5big Network in an office setting where many different people from different departments need to have access to the

5big Network, setting up groups is a good way to organize users and to give the most appropriate access to shares. You can specify which shares groups can access, which users belong to which groups and enable or disable entire groups.

4.3.1. Adding Groups

To add a group:

1. Click Add on the Groups page (

Fig. 41

). The Group Profile page opens (

Fig. 42

).

2. Enter a name and description for the group. The description only appears to the administrator as part of the Group Profile

on this page (a, Fig. 42 ).

3. Select “enabled” to activate the group as soon as your changes are applied.

4. All user accounts on the 5big Network are listed in the User column. Select the users you want to be in the group.

5. Click Apply (b, Fig. 42 ).
