3.1. About Default Shares
The LaCie 5big Network 2 has three shares (similar to folders) by
default: Share and Public. The following table sums up the differ-
ences between them:
Name Accessibility Login Availability
Share Private, accessible only to admin
by default
Password-protected When connected to the network (Ethernet) and to
networked computers
Public Public, accessible to any user on
the network
None When connected to the network (Ethernet) and
to networked computers or UPnP/DLNA-certified
players/adapters (if UPnP service is activated)
Thus, when the 5big Network 2 is connected to the network via
Ethernet, both shares are accessible to the administrator, and Public
to guests. It is also possible to create new shares and/or to delete
the default shares. See section 4.9. Dashboard: Shares for details.
