Managing Sharing Protocols
The Sharing Protocols page allows you to enable, disable, stop, or configure relevant
network protocols. The Sharing Protocol page displays the Object/Task Selector with
the following columns:
n Name: Lists each protocol by name. To enable, disable, or change the properties of a
given protocol, select the button next to the protocol you want to modify.
n Status: Indicates that the protocol is Running, Stopped, or Paused.
n Startup Type: Indicates whether the protocol should start automatically when the
server appliance boots, be invoked manually, or be disabled.
n Description: Displays a brief description of the protocol.
n Tas k s : The Tas k s list is located next to the Object/Task Selector. Use the Name
column of the Object/Task Selector to select a protocol. To perform a task, choose
the appropriate task from the Tas k s list.
Enabling Sharing Protocols
Microsoft recommends that you enable only the necessary network protocols. Limiting the
number of enabled network protocols will enhance the performance of other network
protocols. Additionally, if a problem is encountered with a network or dial-up connection,
the system will attempt to establish connectivity by using every network protocol that is
installed and enabled. By only enabling the protocols that your system can use, the server
appliance can conserve resources and perform better.
To enable a sharing protocol
1. On the primary navigation bar, choose Shares.
2. Choose Sharing Protocols.
