Network (Workgroup/Domain)
If you are unfamiliar with Domain/Active Directory
networking, then please leave the Network Type selected as
Workgroup and Workgroup Name set to Workgroup.
To make your TeraStation a member of a workgroup or
domain, enter the appropriate information into the elds
on this page and click Apply. Do not select Domain
unless you have a Windows Server Domain Controller on
your network. Please leave the network type selected as
Workgroup unless you are a network administrator or have
been instructed to do so by one.
NOTE: If using Domain, TeraStation must be added as a
member computer in the Domain Server.
Domain & Active Directory Authentication integrates the TeraStation Pro with Windows Domain and Active
Directory Servers. The TeraStation Pro participates as a member device in the Domain and Active Directory
networks, allowing the TeraStation to use Users and Groups that reside on the Domain or Active Directory
System. If Active Directory is used, then the TeraStation will automatically receive update information from
the domain controller(s). To congure the TeraStation Pro on an Active Directory network, you must have
the Domain Administrator login credentials. To congure TeraStation Pro in a Windows Domain or Active
Directory environment, please select Domain as the Network Type. Enter the Domain Name and Domain
Controller into the appropriate elds. In an Active Directory environment, check the Active Directory Domain
checkbox and ll in the remaining elds. The Authentication Setup elds will be automatically lled out, so
no input is needed there. Once you have nished, press Apply.
