ADVANCED ACCESSIBILITY FEATURES

This chapter will describe your LaCie product's advanced accessibility features such as remote access, creating
shortcuts to your shares, and multimedia streaming.
REMOTE ACCESS
LaCie's new remote access system, called LaCie MyNAS, makes accessing your NAS away from home a cinch.
Simply create a unique, public username for your NAS in Dashboard > Network, then use this name to access
the NAS in a browser – from anywhere.
Important info: In order to prevent unauthorized access, it is critical to protect each of the user and
administrator accounts registered to your NAS with a strong password BEFORE setting up remote access.
Since LaCie MyNAS lets you access your NAS with a simple URL, malicious users could guess the URL and
access your NAS' files unless each user is protected by a strong password.

Set Up Remote Access

1. Navigate to Dashboard > Network.
2. Under Remote Access, check the Automatic port forward box.
