Setting up Your ix2 Network Storage

Configuring Your ix2 Network Storage to Use Active Directory

If you have an existing Active Directory user organization, you can incorporate it into the ix2 Management Console. Your ix2 can work in a high availability environment, which means it can work with multiple AD servers should one server fail or go offline.

When you configure Active Directory, you enable security on your ix2.

1.To configure Active Directory, manually add the ix2 to your DNS server. Set the ix2 DNS setting to point to your DNS server. On the Network page, uncheck Automatically configure all network settings, type the IP address of your DNS Server in the text box, and click Apply to save your settings.

2.Configure the ix2 to join the Active Directory domain. On the Device Identification page, select Active Directory if you already have an existing AD user organization that you want to incorporate into the ix2.

3.Provide the following connectivity information:

Domain Name — the actual name of your Active Directory domain, for example, sohoad.com.

Preferred Server — the actual name or IP address of your Active Directory Server, for example, ad-server.sohoad.com or 10.14.50.12.

Netbios Name — An optional value that is automatically set to the first part of the Domain Name. For example, if you Domain Name is testdomain.emc.com, the Netbios Name is testdomain. You can edit this name or leave it blank.

Organizational Unit — an optional predefined subset of directory objects within an Active Directory domain.

Administrator Username — the Active Directory username with domain administrator privilege.

Administrator Password — the Active Directory password for the specified Active Directory username.

Users/Groups Refresh Interval — how often the ix2 should refresh the list of available users and groups from the Active Directory server.

Local Network Encryption (SSL) — enforces encryption on your local network.

Remote Network Encryption (SSL) — enforces encryption outside your local network, such as through the internet. Choices for both encryption types are Not required and Always (encryption is always enforced). Always encrypting communication is safest, but can impact performance.

Enable trusted domains — enables your ix2 to allow access to other domains.

4.Click Apply to save your settings.
