Overview

You can create folders on a volume and share the contents of those folders across your network. In order to share a given folder, you must define a network share that includes the folder. A network share can be defined on the entire volume or on a specific folder in the volume.

Once you have defined network shares, users can access them using any of the configured file sharing protocols.
