Mounting a Shared Folder Using WebDAV on Mac

Important:

Before beginning this task, ensure that you have enabled WebDAV in the Control Panel. For details, see Configuring WebDAV Settings.

WebDAV allows users to access and manage files on remote servers. You can mount a shared folder on your Mac as a network drive via WebDAV.

  1. On your Mac, go to Finder > Go > Connect to Server.

    The Connect to Server window appears.

  2. Specify the path of the shared folder that you want to access.
    Tip:

    The shared folder path uses the following format: http://NAS-IP-address: port number/shared-folder-name. For example: http://172.17.45.155:80/Public

  3. Click Connect.
  4. Specify your NAS login credentials.
  5. Click Connect.

The NAS shared folder is mounted as a network drive via WebDAV. You can now access and manage the files in this shared folder using macOS Finder.
