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 StorCenter ix2-dl through the Personal Cloud is not encrypted, and using encryption can slow
down communications.
Enabling Internet Access to the StorCenter ix2-dl
You can grant internet users, including Iomega Link users, secure access to the web interface and
unrestricted access to media content on your StorCenter ix2-dl . Iomega Link is an application that
runs on mobile devices, and allows access to content on your StorCenter ix2-dl . Before enabling
secure access, you must first enable security on your StorCenter ix2-dl and create users. After
enabling secure access, any internet users can access your StorCenter ix2-dl , and view any public
content. Secure content is restricted to internet users who have valid usernames and passwords for
the StorCenter ix2-dl . 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 ix2-
dl 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.
