What are Shares and How Do I Organize Content with Them?

Shares are folders that contain all types of content, including documents, pictures, and music files. Shares

can be unsecured, which means that anyone who has access to your network can access the content in

these Shares. Shares can also be secured, which means access to content in them is limited to select

users and groups.

All Shares on the ix2 are displayed on the Shares page. The Shares page displays a table that contains

folders, connected drives, and any cloud storage to which your ix2 is connected. The Properties column

displays the features that are enabled for each Share.

Share Information

The Information section displays the Share name, graphically displays the space usage of the Share, and

allows you to view the content using the web-based content viewer.

To view the content of a Share, click View Conten t to open the Content Viewer.

To learn how to modify your Share information, refer to Managing Shares on next page.

Access Permissions

The Access Permissions section contains a list of users who currently have access to that Share. Access

Permissions displays when the ix2 is secured, otherwise the section is not shown. If "Everyone" has

access to a Share, it means content on the Share can be viewed by anyone with access to your network

without needing to log into the ix2.

To learn how to modify Access Permissions on a Share, refer to Managing Shares on next page.
