You can add a local group or local group members in the NAS Manager.

  1. Navigate to Home > File Services > Local Groups to display the Local Groups page.
  2. If necessary, click Change to select a different EVS security context or to select the global configuration. Changes made to local groups using this page apply only to the currently selected EVS security context.
    • If an EVS uses the Global configuration, any changes made to the global configuration settings will affect the EVS.
    • If an EVS uses an Individual security context, changes made to the global configuration settings will not affect the EVS. To manage local groups for an EVS that uses an individual security context, you must select the EVS' individual security context to make changes, even if those settings are the same as the settings used by the global security context.
  3. Click add to display the Add Local Group page.
