Managing Users

In order to enable users to access the cloud storage gateway web interface and/or shared folders, you must add the users to the cloud storage gateway web interface. You can then do any of the following:

• Grant the user access rights to network shares.

• Add a custom user group, and then add the new user to the user group. The entire user group can then be granted access rights to network shares, and the access rights will apply to all members of the user group.

• Add the user to the built-in Read Only Administrators user group, which includes read-only access rights to the cloud storage gateway web interface. The user will then be able to view the settings in the Configuration tab, but not modify them.

• Add the user to the built-in Administrators user group, which includes read-write access rights to the cloud storage gateway web interface. The user will then be able to view and modify settings in the Configuration tab.

Note: Users and user groups are granted access rights to network shares during share configuration. See Local File Sharing.

Users are added to user groups during user group configuration. See Creating User Groups.

Users that are not members of the Administrators or Read Only Administrators user groups will not be able to view the Configuration tab.
