Personal Cloud: Accessing Your Device From Anywhere in the World

Configuring Your Iomega Personal Cloud

As an Iomega Personal Cloud administrator, you can manage various settings on your Personal Cloud

to ensure that it functions as efficiently as possible. Settings include specifying an email address

when sending invitations. When data is traveling through the Personal Cloud, you can control the

security of that information by specifying a Secure Communication level. Note that data stored on

your Iomega EZ through the Personal Cloud is not encrypted, and using encryption can slow down

communications.

Enabling Internet Access to the Iomega EZ

You can grant internet users, including Iomega Link users, secure access to the web interface and

unrestricted access to media content on your Iomega EZ . Iomega Link is an application that runs on

mobile devices, and allows access to content on your Iomega EZ . Before enabling secure access, you

must first enable security on your Iomega EZ and create users. After enabling secure access, any

internet users can access your Iomega EZ , and view any public content. Secure content is restricted

to internet users who have valid usernames and passwords for the Iomega EZ . When you enable

unrestricted media content access, your media files become available to all internet users.

Changing Personal Cloud Settings

1. In the Configure section of the Personal Cloud page, click Settings.

2. In the Personal Cloud Settings dialog box, configure the following:

• Administration Email Address — This is the sender email address used on the email

invitations.

• Port Number — Your router forwards this specific port for your Personal Cloud. This

value is automatically filled in, and you do not have to change it, unless you have more

than one Personal Cloud on your network. Refer to

Configuring Router Port Forwarding

for Personal Cloud for more information.

• Secure Communication — This setting controls the security of information traveling

through the Personal Cloud.

• Note: You can also specify a Secure Communication level setting with Iomega

Storage Manager . The Secure Communication setting for the Iomega StorCenter EZ

Media Console sets the minimum value. You cannot specify a setting lower than this

value using Iomega Storage Manager . For information on using Iomega Storage

Manager , refer to its online help.

3. Click Apply to save your changes.
