Network Access to the Server
Snap Servers are preconfigured to use DHCP, autonegotiate network
settings, and allow access to the server for Windows, NFS, Macintosh, FTP,
and HTTP/HTTPS clients. Discussed next are the options for configuring
TCP/IP addressing, network bonding, and access protocols. Network
bonding options allow you to configure the Snap Server for load balancing
and failover. Network protocols control which network clients can access
the server.
Topics in Network Access:
•TCP/IP Options
• Configuring TCP/IP Settings
• Default Protocol Access Settings
•Windows SMB Access
•NFS Access
• Apple File Protocol Access
•FTP Access
• HTTP/HTTPS Access
•DHCP Server
Tip
The default settings enable access to the Snap Server via all protocols
supported by the Snap Server. As a security measure, disable all protocols
not in use. For example, if no Macintosh or FTP clients need access to the
Snap Server, disable these protocols in the Administration Tool.
