3.7. Multimedia Server

Once you have established the network connection between your
computer and the 2big Network 2, you can configure your 2big
Network 2 to act as a UPnP multimedia server. Follow these steps:
1. Make sure the 2big Network 2 is properly connected to your
home network as described in section 2. Connecting to a Net-
work.
2. Choose which share(s) will be available to DLNA/UPnP devices,
then enable UPnP for that share on the 2big Network 2 Dash-
board (see section 4.9. Dashboard: Shares) (Fig.
3. Now you will be able to play files located on public shares on
your 2big Network 2 on any other UPnP/DLNA-certified player/
adapter (such as an XBox 360, Play Station 3, a DLNA mobile
phone, etc.).
TECHNICAL NOTE: If you want your DLNA devices to be able to
access files on your external USB hard drive connected to the expan-
sion port on the 2big Network 2, select Multimedia Indexation on
the Dashboard: External Ports page.
