Using Protocols to Share Files
What Are Protocols and How Do I Use Them to Share Files?
Your px6-300d Network Storage uses communication protocols to mount file systems and allow files to be
transferred between client computers and the px6-300d.
The px6-300d includes the following protocols for file sharing:
● Apple Filing Protocol / Time Machine
● Bluetooth
● FTP
● TFTP
● NFS
● rsync
● SNMP
● Web Access (HTTP/HTTPS)
● WebDAV
● Windows DFS
● Windows File Sharing
AFP File Sharing for Macs
The Apple Filing Protocol (AFP) enables Apple file sharing, which is the preferred method for Mac users to
access Shares. When AFP is enabled, you can use Time Machine to back up a Mac client computer to
your px6-300d Network Storage. See Backing up Macs with Time Machine for detailed instructions.
AFP is on by default. If AFP has been disabled, click the switch on to re-enable it.
Bluetooth File Sharing
Once a Bluetooth adapter is detected, files can be uploaded from a Bluetooth device to a configurable
destination Share on the px6-300d.
Configuring Bluetooth settings
1. To enable Bluetooth, click the switch on.
2. Once Bluetooth Transfer is enabled, check the Enable security checkbox to require Bluetooth
users to supply a unique PIN that they have defined before allowing them to transfer files to the
destination Share on the px6-300d.
If you have enabled security, you must define a unique PIN number, which will be supplied by
devices attempting to upload data using Bluetooth.
3. To set the destination Share, click .
4. Click Apply to save your settings.
