[Windows] How do I map an external drive onto my BoilerAD computer?

Overview

Instructions for mapping a network drive onto a BoilerAd computer.

Instructions

Any drive that begins with \\itifs0# or similar will need to be remapped on devices that have been migrated to the new BoilerAD Active Directory domain.

NOTE:  The following instructions may not apply for all ESS-supported shares, as some share names have changed in BoilerAD.  Please contact the Purdue IT Service Desk for questions.

NOTE: You will need to be connected to the Purdue Network for these instructions to be successful. (VPN or on Campus Connections) 

1. Open File Explorer from the Start Menu or Task Bar, in the Left Panel, right click your computer name.
2. Choose the "Map Network Drive..." Option 
3. Enter your info for your drive, drive letter and ensure "Reconnect at sign-in" option is checked.
4. If the above info was correct, you will then need to enter your credential.
    
5. Now if access was granted and your credentials were correct you will see a window appear with your file location.
