USER MANUAL

To configure system general setup settings:

1. Assign a device name for this storage device in the Device Name field. The

device name can contain up to 15 characters, including alphabetic, numeric, and
hyphens only.

2. Enter the brief description for this storage device in the Device Description field.

The maximum length of the description must not be more than 256 alphanumeric
characters.

3. For Web Access Protocol, select either of the following web access protocols:

Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is a communications protocol for the transfer of

information on the intranet and the World Wide Web.

Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer or HTTPS is a URL scheme

used to indicate a secure HTTP connection. All traffic between the managing computer and
the My Book World Edition is encrypted. It is syntactically identical to the http:// scheme
normally used for accessing resources using HTTP. HTTPS provides a more secure means of
configuring your device, but may affect the responsiveness of the user interface.
