3.1.3.7 Accessing Share Folder from Mac Clients
NOTE: By default, new Mac OS versions such as 10.4.x or later
versions, support SMB protocol.
If Mac OS is older version, such as Mac OS 9, and will use AFP
protocol to connect, the AFP protocol must be enabled in System 
Service. Enable also Mac(AFP) in Storage/Share  Share/Security 
Share  Protocol Setting.
Make sure the account that will be used to login the share folder has
permission (already added in Storage/Share  Share/Security 
Share  Privilege).
1. To connect to share folder via SMB protocol, in the Finder, select “Connect to Server”
from the Go menu. The Connect to Server dialog box will be displayed.
2. In Server Address box, enter the path to the NAS share. Use the format:
smb://x.x.x.x/share-name or smb://NAS-host-name/share-name.
For example: smb://192.168.99.127/share1
NOTE: You can also use the NAS host name instead of IP address, if
DNS setting is configured in NAS  Network  Device Configuration,
in Mac OS, and in DNS server.
If you enabled AFP service and Mac(AFP) Protocol Setting, and
wanted to connect to NAS share folder via AFP, use the format:
afp://x.x.x.x/share-name.
For example: afp://192.168.99.127/share1
