The Administration Tab - Advanced - Groups

When you click the Advanced tab under Administration, several other tabs will appear. The Groups, Shares, Backup, Disk, Upgrade, and Setup tabs are displayed and intended for advanced users, except for the Setup tab. When you click the Setup tab, the LAN, System, Users, and Status tabs will re-appear.

Group Information

The Groups screen allows you to manage the groups of users who use the Network Attached Storage.

New Group

Name. To create a new group, enter a name for the new group and click the Create button.

Existing Groups

This shows the list of all groups. Two groups always exist and cannot be deleted. The “administrators group” is everyone who manages the Network Attached Storage, and the “everyone” group is the group of all users.

To change access rights for a group, select the group from the list and click the Access button to display the shares that the group members are able to access. You can then assign, remove, or modify the access rights for the members of this group.

To add or remove members, select the group from the list and click the Members button to display the users who are members of this group. You can then add or delete members. The “everyone” group always contains all users, so you cannot add or remove members unless you permanently remove a user through the Users screen.

To delete a group, select the group from the list and click the Delete button to delete it. The “administrators” and “everyone” groups cannot be deleted.

Click the Help button to get more information about this screen.
