GroupsGroups OverviewGroups consist of one or more users, and administrators can grant each group rights to Shares on the px4-300d Network Storage. Users can belong to more than one group. The Groups page enablesadministrators to create one or more groups, and grant each group rights to Shares on the px4-300d.Security must be enabled before you can create groups.Refer to the Security page to enable security permissions and create an administrator account, ifyou have not done so already.By default, there are no groups defined. Once an administrator defines one or more groups, the Groupsfunctionality is dynamically available when creating, modifying, and viewing users, Shares, and groups.How Access Rights Are Granted Using Groups in Workgroup ModeWhen groups are defined in Workgroup mode, a user's access rights are the most rights granted to theuser and all groups to which the user belongs. For example, assume 3 Shares exist (SF1, SF2, and SF3),two users (UserA and UserB), and three groups (Group1, Group2, Group3). When created, UserA was notgranted access rights to any Share, and UserB was granted Read rights to SF3. Group1 has Read/Writerights to SF1, Group2 has Read/Write rights to SF2, and Group3 has Read/Write rights to SF3. If UserA isadded to Group1, UserB is added to Group2, and Group1 is added to Group3, the table below shows theresulting access rights for each user and group defined:Name Member of Group Access RightsUserA Group1, Group3 SF1 - Read/Write SF3 - Read/WriteUserB Group2 SF2 - Read/Write SF3 - ReadGroup1 Group3 SF1 - Read/Write SF3 - Read/WriteGroup2 none SF2 - Read/WriteGroup3 none SF3 - Read/WriteAdding Groups1.
