- Open a browser and log in the Admin Portal.
- From the left navigation pane, select Settings.
- To open the list of policies, select the Policies tab.
- Click the policy that you want to configure, and then click the edit icon (

<xml> <macclouddrive> <!-- XML for Mac Drive --> </macclouddrive> </xml>- Replace the <!-- XML for Mac Drive --> line with the parameters that you need using the descriptions in Table 1.
