Front, Back, Left, Right, Top, Bottom
From each tab you can define a unique image; there’s one tab for each side of the cube.

This shader can only be connected to the material node’s Environment parameter to create an environment map. To create reflection maps, try using an Image shader and connecting it to the Reflection input of the surface shader.
