to enable Active Directory authentication for.
3. ForActions, choose Edit SMB settings to open the Edit SMB settings dialog box.
4. In the Active Directory settings section, choose Join domain.
Note
If your gateway can't join an Active Directory directory, try joining with the directory's IP
address by using the JoinDomain API operation.
5. For Domain name, provide the domain that you want the gateway to join. You can join a domain
by using its IP address or its organizational unit. An organizational unit is an Active Directory
subdivision that can hold users, groups, computers, and other organizational units.
6. Provide the domain user and the domain password, and then choose Save.
A message at the top of the Gateways section of your console indicates that your gateway
successfully joined your AD domain.
