Access to Shares through NFS and User Permissions
When you access your px6-300d through NFS, the access permissions to content on the px6-300d are
controlled by Host-Based Access Control rules on your client computer, not by user access permissions
on your px6-300d. This means that any valid user on the Linux computer who has access to the host (the
storage device) can access Shares on the px6-300d, even if not given specific user permission to those
Shares on the device.
rsync: Synchronizing Files with Another Storage Device or Other Computers
When you turn on this protocol, you can enable the px6-300d Network Storage as an rsync server. When
the px6-300d is an rsync server, it can be used as a source and/or destination device for rsync Copy Jobs.
Because of the fast and efficient nature of rsync, an rsync Copy Job can be faster than a Windows File
Sharing Copy Job. For more information on Copy Jobs, refer to
Backing Up Your px6-300d
.
If you enable the px6-300d as an rsync server, you can optionally set up a user account on the px6-300d for
secure rsync Copy Jobs.
Configuring rsync server settings
1. To enable rsync server, click the switch on.
2. To create a secure user account, check Configure secure rsync credentials.
3. The username is preset as rsync. You can change this to a more meaningful user account name.
Enter a password and confirm it for the rsync user account name. When you create a secure
rsync user account on the px6-300d, you allow other devices to securely copy to or from it.
4. By default, rsync uses TCP port 873 for accepting requests. You can change this value to a
different port number, if desired.
5. Click Apply to save your settings.
To change any rsync server settings, click
. You cannot enable rsync server if you have
already enabled
SFTP
.
TFTP
On the Protocols page, click the switch to turn on TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) and allow access to
your px6-300d Network Storage. When you turn TFTP on, you can send files to your px6-300d using FTP.
Monitoring Your Device with an SNMP Management Tool
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) provides information about the state of the px6-300d
Network Storageto various administrative computers, known as managers. When the SNMP protocol is
enabled on a device, SNMP agent software on the device reports information to the managers, and an
administrator user can perform some configuration of the px6-300d through the manager. Information that
comes from the px6-300d is called a trap. Managers and the px6-300d must be running on the same
network.
SNMP should be disabled unless you are specifically providing information to a management system that
requires this information.
Configuring SNMP settings
1. To enable SNMP, click the switch on.
