Active Directory (AD) Authentication
Active Directory (AD) is a Microsoft directory service that stores information for users, user groups, and
computers for authenticating and managing domain access. Windows environments use AD to store, share,
and manage a network's information and resources.
When a NAS is joined to an AD domain, the NAS automatically imports all of the user accounts on the AD
server. AD users can then use the same login details to access the NAS.
