Veeam Backup Repository Settings

The Backup Server step of the wizard is available if you have chosen to store backup files in a Veeam backup repository.

  1. In the Veeam backup server name or IP address field, specify a DNS name or IP address of the Veeam backup server.
  2. In the Port field, specify the number of the port over which Veeam Agent must communicate with the backup repository. By default, Veeam Agent for Mac uses port 10006.
  3. Select the type of Authentication to access the Veeam backup server:
  • Login and password. With this option selected, specify the following settings:
  1. In the Login field, type in the name of the account that has access to the Veeam backup repository.
  2. Optionally, in the Domain field, type in the name of the domain in which the account that has access to the Veeam backup repository is registered.

NOTE

For more information about user roles, see the Users and Roles section in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
