SMB file filtering

You can use SMB file filtering to allow or deny file writes to a share or access zone.

This feature enables you to deny certain types of files that might cause throughput issues, security problems, storage clutter, or productivity disruptions. You can restrict writes by allowing writes of certain file types to a share.

  • If you choose to deny file writes, you can specify file types by extension that are not allowed to be written. OneFS permits all other file types to be written to the share.
  • If you choose to allow file writes, you can specify file types by extension that are allowed to be written. OneFS denies all other file types to be written to the share.

You can add or remove file extensions if your restriction policies change.
