To enable UPnP NAT Traversal for Web Access & FTP:
1. Click Enable in UPnP for Web Access & FTP.
2. Click Submit.
The UPnP NAT Traversal combines with the UPnP feature and NAT feature.
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is an architecture for pervasive peer-to-peer
network connectivity of PCs and intelligent devices. The Network Address
Translation (NAT) is used in gateway devices that form the boundary between the
public Internet and the private LAN. As IP packets from the private LAN traverse
the gateway, NAT translates a private IP address and port number to a public IP
address and port number, tracking those translations to keep individual sessions
intact.
To enable a network service:
1. Click Enable in network service.
2. If you have selected FTP as your network service, click Yes to enable or click No
to disable anonymous login, then click Submit.
3. If you have selected NFS as your network service, the IP allowed field appears.
You will be prompted to enter the IP filters that are allowed for NFS service. Click
Add to add a new IP filter, then click Submit.
4. You can specify particular port numbers for HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP services
respectively. Instead of selecting the Default radio button, you can specify the
port number between 8000 and 10000 for each service.
Note: In IP Allowed field of NFS service, '*' means allow all IP addresses. If you intend to allow
specified IP addresses or range, please modify '*' in IP Allowed field.
Mount point for NFS share is /nfs/SHARENAME, Ex. /nfs/Public
Workgroup
The Workgroup menu allows you to set up the network storage device as a
workgroup or a domain member. The default setting is Workgroup. Unlike
workgroups, domains are controlled from a central location (domain controller) and
require central authentication before you can join them. Workgroups, in contrast, are
much simpler to control. As long as you know the workgroup name, you can add any
computer to a workgroup.
If your network uses a domain (i.e., has a Windows ADS), you may wish to connect
this device as a domain member. When configured as a domain member, the device
will ask the ADS to authenticate users. Therefore, as a domain member, the device
provides user-level security.
When joining a domain, the device must be authorized by the domain's administrator.
A user must enter the Domain Name, Domain Controller IP Address, Administrator
Name, and Administrator Password for the authorization.
