Chapter 2. Account management
2-1. Google Apps Registration
Google Apps registration includes 2 parts, to register your domain on Google and to
certify your domain using DNS. Then configure to store the registered domain related
information in CloudProof. And then open the mail service under the registered domain
on Google APPS, so now CloudProof can begin to synchronize with.
1. Register your Domain on Google APPS
Login to Admin page, click through “Google APPS -> DS Register in GAS Service”,
then the following page will show up.
2. Notice that, if you haven’t registered Domain on Google APPS, at first, you need
to press “Register Domain on Google APPS” to register your Domain. If you
already have Google APPS Domain, please go to step 3 directly. Now, we assume
you haven’t, so please press “Register Domain on Google APPS”. It will lead you
to the Domain registering page on Google APPS as below; here please follow
Google APPS’s registering steps.

4. Mails Migration
As long as the registered Domain has been successfully certified by Google
APPS, the Google APPS’s Mail service becomes available for use. If you still
want your original Email server remaining active for service, and don’t want a
onetime completely transfer, then you have the choice to use the “Gmail Dual
Deliver” way. We provide a simple tutoring for using this function. Pressing
“Gmail Dual Deliver Setup” to enter the Google APPS Email configuration
tutoring page; refer to the following figure Fig. 2-4. You have 2 choices to use
this function. One is “Your Mail Server First”, which will use your original Email
server to forward mails to Google APPS’s alias Domain (Domain alias). The
other one is “Gmail First”; in this choice, the DNS MX will be configured to
resolve to Google APPS directly, and mails will be forward to your original
Email server.
After you complete the configuration, you can press the “Gmail Verify” button.
Then CloudProof will send a testing mail to the Domain administrator’s mail
box which you registered on Google APPS. So once you receive such a confirm

File Synchronous is one of the main functions of CloudProof. File Synchronous can
synchronize the document files not only from Google Docs to CloudProof, but also
from CloudProof to Google Docs, so that users can access files any time any place.
Following, we will describe the operation and configuration of CloudProof Web File
Manager.
1. Setting of File Synchronous
Users login CloudProof, through the user’s personal page->Settings will enter
this page, referred as Fig. 3-30
Fig.3-30
To start file synchronous, configure “Gdoc Sync Time” for the synchronous time
(minutes), and then press “Save” to save the setting. Time options are as below:
10 minutes
30 minutes
60 minutes
120 minutes
240 minutes
360 minutes
720 minutes
1440 minutes
To setup the file formats of the synchronization from Google Docs to CloudProof,
configure “File Sync to CloudProof”. Currently the formats supported are as follow:
Document: doc, html, odt, pdf, png, rtf, txt, zip.
Presentation: ppt, pdf, png, swf, txt.
Spreadsheets: xls, csv, pdf, ods, tsv, html.
CLOUDPROOF USER MANUAL
41
To setup the file formats of the synchronization from CloudProof to Google Docs,
the limits of the conversion are as below:
Only support “Google Apps for Business”, “Google Apps for Education”,
“Google Apps for Government”.
Document: no matter the size of pages or character type, the upper limit is
512,000 bytes. After the upload document file converted into Google Docs
Format, the size of the file can’t exceed 1MB.
Spreadsheets: 400,000 cells, 256 columns for each work sheet. After the
upload spreadsheet file converted into Google Docs Format, the file size can’t
exceed 20MB, cell size 400,000 and column size 256 for each work sheet.
Presentation: the upper limit size of the presentation file established in
“Google Docs” is 10MB, probably 200 slides in equal. After the upload
presentation file converted into Google Docs Format, the file size limit is also
10MB.
If choose not to converting, then a single file size can reach 250MB. The
supported file formats are jpg, jpeg, png, bmp, gif, txt, html, odt, sxw, doc,
docx, pdf, rtf, pps, ppt, xls, xlsx, ods, csv, tab, tsv, swf, zip.
2. Access files through Web File Manager
Web File Manger is the file management interface of CloudProof, which enables
the users of Google Apps to use their internet browser to access the file data in
CloudProof.
Select “Web File Manager” in user page to enter the file interface, referred as Fig.
3-31.
On the top left Tool Bar, Functions in order are:
Back: Back to the upper layer folder.
Reload: Immediately synchronous the files in Google Docs.
Open: Open the selected file or folder.
New folder : Add a new folder

3-4. Contacts
Contacts Synchronous is one of the main functions in CloudProof. Contracts Synchronous
can synchronize the contact records from Google Gmail to CloudProof. And users can
add new contacts to Google Gmail through CloudProof, so that while users are using
Gmail or CloudProof to send or receive Emails, they can view contacts information.
1. Settings of Contact Synchronous
Users login CloudProof, through the user’s personal page->Settings will enter this
page, referred as Fig. 3-33. Switch the “Gcontact Sync” from “OFF” to “ON”, then it
will start the Contacts Synchronous function (the default is synchronizing every 5
minutes).

Chapter 4. Administrator Page
4-1. Network Setup and Net Management
This section covers the configuration and operation of Network Setup and Net
Management, those users need using admin account to login.
1. Failover Link
If it is concerned should WAN network link be broken or encounter a bad
signal condition, you can additionally setup another “Failover” link, companied
by enabling the “WAN-Detect” function (WAN-Detect setup will be included
later in this section). In this way, the “primary” WAN link and the “Failover”
link will backup each other. Followings are configurations for Adding “Failover”
links:
First, connect the port1 in CloudProof to the network that backups, then login
into the Admin system setup page, through “Network Setup -> Failover Link
Setup”.

After finish the entries, press “Apply”.
3. LACP (802.3ad) setting
Taking the advantage of 802.3ad Bonding technology, CloudProof combines
multiple network interface (limit to Port2~Port4) to aggregate the bandwidth
from CloudProof to LAN and to backup links from CloudProof to LAN. As long
as it is configured, the switch or storage equipment connected with must also
support this function and apply the correspondent settings.
After login the Admin page, enter through “Network Setup –> LACP
(802.3ad).
CLOUDPROOF USER MANUAL

Fig.4-3
IP Address
After combines 2 network interfaces (Bonding) into a new interface, this is the
IP of this new interface. This IP should still be the IP at the original LAN subnet.
Subnet Mask
Setup the subnet mask for the new interface IP
Gateway
Setup the default gateway for the new interface, which is the gateway to route
packets behind the LAN.
Bond Port
Select which 2 ports to combine (please remember to connect the ports you
want to a HUB or a Switch in advance).
After finish the setup, press “Apply”.
4. WAN-Detect setup
According to the Failover link setup introduced in the first sub-section, the
“primary” WAN link and the “Failover” link become each other’s backup link
while it also starts the “WAN-Detect” function. When this function implemented,
as soon as the main WAN link encounters problems, the default gateway to
which CloudProof sends packet for route will switch to the failover link one. This
function will take the primary link as the main link, that is, after the primary
recovers, route will switch back to the primary link.
After login to Admin page, enter through “Network Setup -> WAN Detect”.
