The local application will also mount network shares when they are selected from the browser. The result was that at times it became confusing whether I was connected to the ix2 or the server running on my computer. The Access Shared Folder feature requires you to run an application on your computer that installs a web server that serves up pages looking just like the pages from the ix2, with the exception that some menu items had a different ordering. And along those same lines, the “Access Shared Folder” option from the home menu is also designed to allow you to get to your files through the web browser, but I found it a bit odd. When you select a file, it gets downloaded or displayed through the web browser. In this case, the search located a Skeleton.eps file I had stored. It is important to note that Search is available without logging in, so keep that in mind when you deploy this device on your LAN (more on this later). The search term refers to file names, not file contents.
