Viewing Network Shares Using Windows File Sharing
Use this procedure to view network shares when Windows File Sharing is configured. For information, see Configuring Windows File Sharing.
1 On a computer connected to the same switch as the gateway, view the network neighborhood. The network neighborhood is accessed in different ways, dependent on the operating system. For example:
In Microsoft Windows 7, click Start > Computer and then click Network in the left pane.In Microsoft Windows 8, open File Explorer and then click Network in the left pane.In Microsoft Windows 10, click Start > Settings and then click Network & Internet.2 Double-click the gateway icon.
A list of network shares is displayed.
Note: When accessing a network share, if your user name and password on the computer are identical to a user name and password on the gateway, the computer automatically logs in to the share using that user name and password. You will not be prompted to authenticate. In all other cases, a pop-up window will appear, and you must authenticate using a valid user name and password.
