Default Protocol Access Settings
Snap Servers are preconfigured to allow multiplatform access in heterogeneous
Windows, UNIX/Linux, and Macintosh environments. The following table
summarizes the Snap Server’s default network protocol access configuration.
Tip
As a security measure, disable any network protocols not required in your
network environment.
Windows SMB Access
Windows (SMB) settings are configured on the
Network > Windows
screen of the
Administration Tool. The default settings make the Snap Server available to SMB
clients in the workgroup named
Workgroup
. Language support is set to North
America/Europe (code page 850); opportunistic locking is enabled, as is
participation in master browser elections. See the online help for details in
configuring these options.
