Getting Started What to read next 59 What to read next Every LAN has someone who configures the network equipment, assigns email addresses, and sets up network users. This person is the network administrator. If you are the network administrator, refer to “Setting Up Your Local Area Network” on page 79 to continue setting up your system. If you are a network user, the only chapter in this book you will need is “Using the Network” on page 61. 5.375 x 8.375 ver 2.
Chapter 2 Using the Network A network is a group of computers connected together so that they can share services such as printers, files, disk space and backup. Your Toshiba Magnia SG30 Appliance Server provides networking services to all the computers connected through the private Ethernet® LAN ports on its back panel, or through the optional built-in wireless network. These computers are called “clients.
62 Using the Network Logging in to the network Logging in to the network When you start your computer, you will be asked for a user name and password to connect to the server. Both your client computer and the Magnia SG30 check your user name and password entries to make sure that you are an authorized user of the system. Therefore, the user name and password for your client computer must match the user name and password registered with the Magnia SG30 exactly.
Using the Network Types of users 63 Types of users Your Magnia SG30 categorizes user accounts by different types of administrative access permissions, identified by their access (or security) level. ❖ Level 1 users cannot use the Administration Web site to configure the Magnia SG30. This access level is only used if your Magnia SG30 is configured in High Security mode. ❖ Level 2 users have limited access to the Administration Web site but lack security clearance to change sensitive settings.
64 Using the Network Types of users Both operating systems have a default user name called “administrator” that has been granted administrator rights and can change sensitive settings. The Magnia SG30 "Client Setup- and Documentation CD" can only be run by a user name that has administrator rights. On Windows 2000 and Windows XP, it creates a user account with administrative rights. On Windows NT, the account created does not have administrative rights.
Using the Network Placing files on the network 65 Placing files on the network When you store data on your local computer, this information is usually stored in files on the computer’s hard disk. Later, when you want to work on the information again, you open these files and can modify, print, or use the data. Information stored on your local computer is normally accessible only when you are using your computer.
66 Using the Network Placing files on the network An additional public folder is provided on the server. Anyone can create, modify, or delete files in this folder. When your client computer is configured for access to the network, the setup wizard automatically creates your account’s private folder as a special mapped disk drive. It also maps the second hard disk drive to the public folder on the Magnia SG30. These drives look just like the C: drive on your computer, but have a different letter.
Using the Network Sharing files 67 Sharing files A basic use of the Magnia SG30 is for file sharing. Each client computer connected to the Magnia SG30 can access not only its own hard disk drive(s), but also two special areas on the Magnia SG30’s hard disk drive.
68 Using the Network Sharing files These folders are mapped drives that point to an area on the Magnia SG30.

This protocol is supported by the Windows 95/98 and Windows Me operating systems, as well as by the Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP operating systems. If you are using an Apple® Macintosh®, you can either configure it to access the Magnia SG30 using AppleTalk or use a commercial product, such as “Dave” to obtain SMB access.
72 Using the Network Sharing a printer Sharing a printer Another important feature of the Magnia SG30 is that it allows all users to share a single network printer. In some cases, the network printer can replace individual printers. In other cases, the network printer is an additional higher-speed and higher-resolution device. Print jobs sent to this single network printer are stored in a queue on the Magnia SG30 and are processed on a first-come first-served basis.
Using the Network Sharing a printer 73 Connecting the printer to the Magnia SG30 If you plan to use a printer with a USB connection, the printer must be connected to the printer port on the back of the Magnia SG30. If the printer is a network printer supporting a LAN network connection, it should be plugged in to the internal switch. Normally your network administrator does this when setting up the LAN.
