Pearl User Guide AFU using CIFS
AFU using CIFS
This procedure assumes you have completed the steps in Enable and set timing for AFU and wish to continue
with configuration of upload using CIFS (also known as SMB or samba).
To configure upload using CIFS:
1. Select CIFS Client from the protocol drop down list in the Automatic File Upload configuration page;
the lower half of the page reflects the selection.
2. Specify the target Server address. If your system is configured with DHCP or has a valid DNS
configuration (see Configure DHCP ), you can use the server’s fully qualified domain name instead of
the IP address.
3. Enter the target Server port, if you have configured the server to use something non-standard. Leave
this value blank to use the default port.
4. Specify the Server share. This is the CIFS share name or the name of the shared folder on the server.
If needed, request this value from the network administrator.
5. If the system is in a different domain than the server or if it is part of Active Directory, enter the
Domain name of the CIFS server.
6. Specify a username for the CIFS Server in the Login field. The user must have write permissions for the
share folder.
7. Specify the password for the user in the Password field; the value is masked by dots.
8. Select Use temp file to name files with a temporary filename extension (.part) on the server until
upload is complete.
