User & Access - Access Control: Microsoft Windows
Once logical volumes have been created, users or user groups can be assigned to have access to specific logical volumes. By default, all users
are given access to a new logical volume. You can assign exclusive access rights to a logical volume to one user group or individual user.
Furthermore, you can specify an individual user, who is part of a user group, to have higher or lower access level than the rest of the group.
This section controls the access control at the directory level. For sub-directory and file level access control, user must assign them directly to
the sub-directory, or file, from the Microsoft Windows client.
Assign Access Control
To assign users and/or user groups access to a logical volume, follow the steps below:
1. Select the logical volume that you wish to give user access to from the Select Logical Volume drop-down list.
2. Select the users and/or user groups from the All Users list.
3. Select one of the following access levels:
• Full Control – read, write, and delete file privileges to the selected logical volume
• Read/Write – read and write files to the selected logical volume. Users will not be able to delete files.
• Read Only – read privileges to the selected logical volume. Users will not be able to add new files, modify files or delete
files.
• Deny – all access is denied to the selected logical volume for the user. This is necessary when you wish to give access to
a user group except for an individual user within that group. Any individual user within a user group can be assigned with
different access level from the rest of the user group by assigning a different access level to the individual user for the
logical volume. The individual user access level takes priority over the user group access level. User will not be able to
read, write or delete any files within the logical volume.
4. Click on Add.
5. To remove a user or user group from the logical volume, select them from the Assigned Users list and click on Remove.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 above to add or delete additional users and/or user groups to the logical volume.
To exit and return to the home page, click on Cancel.
Host IP Blocking
In addition to user level access control, you can specify host-level security. To add or delete an IP address, follow the steps below:
Adding an IP Address
1. Select the logical volume that you wish to give host access to from the Select Logical Volume drop-down list.
2. Enter IP address of the host in the Enter IP address field.
3. Click on Allow to allow host access or Deny to deny host access to the selected logical volume.
4. Click on Add.
Deleting an IP Address
1. Select the logical volume where you wish to delete host access from the Select Logical Volume drop-down list.
2. Select the IP address from the IP Address drop down list.
3. Click on Delete.
To exit and return to the home page, click on Cancel.
NOTE: When IP address is added to the Allow list, those on the Allow list are the only host IP addresses that will be allowed to access the
Logical Volume. When IP address is added to the Deny list, those on the Deny list are the only host IP addresses that will be denied to access
the Logical Volume.
