By clicking on New network drive the configuration menu to connect a network share will open. At Mapping name the network share is given a name. Which protocol is used for the data comunication is specified at Protocol. When selecting a protocol you have to consider on which system the network share will be connected.

If the drive integration is performed on a Windows system, the protocol has to be Windows Share. If the drive connecting is on a Unix/ Linux system, the communication protocol will be NFS (Network File Service).

NFS is by default using port 2049 for the data communication. A custom port can be entered.

Following only the server on which the release was established, the directory path and name of the share are given. An authentication with User and Password allows a secure access to the network share.
