RE: Map Drive Issue V7R1 SMB1

I doubt 7.1 can do SMB2. You'll probably need to allow SMB1 on your PC.

Subject: Map Drive Issue V7R1 SMB1

I am trying to map a shared folder on a Power 8 running V7R1 and our Win10 Console so I can place files for V7R3 udf images. Windows is giving me the following in a message box.

The mapped network drive could not be created because the following error has occurred:

You can't connect to the file share because it's not secure.
The share requires the obsolete SMB1 protocol, which is Unsafe and could expose your system to attack.
Your system requires SMB2 or higher. For more indo on Resolving this issue, see:

I have not looked at the link yet. Is there something to be done on the P8 to bring the protocol higher?
