SMB message encryption can be enabled or disabled using the nas-cluster select cluster_name smb-protocol messageencryption command in the Group Manager CLI. For more information about the CLI commands, see the Dell EqualLogic Group Manager CLI Reference Guide, which is available on the support site. Modify SMB Share NAS Antivirus Settings A newly created or existing SMB share inherits the NAS clusterwide default antivirus settings. You can modify these settings on individual SMB shares as needed. For example, you might want a specific Threat Action policy or you might want to exclude certain directories from scans to improve performance. If you unconfigure the NAS antivirus service, you cannot modify the antivirus settings for SMB shares. However, if you subsequently reconfigure the service, the settings that were previously in place are preserved. To create specific NAS antivirus settings for a particular SMB share: 1. Click NAS, expand NAS Clusters and Local Containers, and then select the NAS container name. 2. Click the SMB Shares tab. 3. Select the SMB share in the SMB Shares panel. 4. Click Modify SMB share to open the dialog box. 5. Click the Antivirus Settings tab. 6. Modify the NAS antivirus settings as follows: 192 NAS Container Operations
