• Default Network Configuration of the Disk On-line Server

By factory default, your Disk On-line Server will try to build the connection to the

Internet (WAN) via the DHCP protocol. If the Internet connection service that you are

using does not support DHCP protocol, you will need to change the WAN configuration

to successfully connect to the Internet. Please consult your Internet Service Provider (ISP)

or network administrator to get the correct WAN configuration information.

Before you change the WAN configuration, your Disk On-line Server will continuously

try to obtain the external IP address from WAN via the DHCP protocol. However, this

will not affect the connection between the Disk On-line Server and the local computers.

By factory default, the internal IP address of your Disk On-line Server in the local

network is 192.168.1.254, and the DHCP service is activated to perform IP address

allocation and management for local network.

Please make sure the computer is connected to one of the LAN ports on the back of the

Disk On-line Server, and then follow the instruction below to build the connection.

System Settings

Basic system settings include the server name, date, time, and language settings.

• Server Name

You must assign a unique name for your Disk On-line Server for ease of identification

within the local network. The server name can accommodate as much as 14 characters,

which can be a combination of letters (A-Z or a-z), numbers (0-9) and hyphens (-). The

server will not accept name containing blank spaces, period (.), or names with only

numbers. The LCD display will show the current server name.

Next, you must configure your Disk On-line Server to the workgroup. The workgroup

represents a basic computer group within the Microsoft Network. Files are normally

shared within the group. Workgroups can accommodate as much as 15 characters but

must exclude the following characters:

; : " < > * + = \ | ? , [ ] /

The first character cannot be a period (.). For ease of management and usage, please set

your Disk On-line Server and attached computer(s) in the same workgroup.

Moreover, the Disk On-line Server allows you to specify comments (such as

administrator name, department, or location) that describe the Disk On-line Server for

ease of identification to an on-line user.

• Date & Time

Set the date, time, and time zone according to your location. If the settings are incorrectly

entered, the following problems may occur:

1. When using a web browser to access or save a file, the time of the file accessed or

saved may be out of sync.

2. The system event log time will be incorrect compared to the actual time an action

occurred.

• Language Setting

The server is based on the language settings and uses it accordingly while creating or

displaying files and directories. Select the correct language settings to avoid the

following problems:

1. Inability to create files or directories with special characters.

2. Inability to display files or directories name with special characters.

Network Settings

The network settings include the TCP/IP configuration for WAN and LAN, network service

settings, router and firewall configuration, etc.

• WAN Configuration

According to your WAN connection, you can choose the following four methods to

configure the TCP/IP settings to the external network:

1. Use PPPoE Protocol

PPPoE is commonly used in DSL-based broadband services to establish the Internet

connection. Please check with you ISP to check if PPPoE is used. You will also need

the user name and password information that supplied by your ISP to properly

configure the PPPoE settings.

2. Use PPTP Protocol

If the Disk On-line Server is connecting to a remote PPTP server through the WAN

port, you need to use the PPTP protocol.

3. Use DHCP Protocol

The DHCP protocol is usually used in a Cable modem environment or the intranet.

The system will obtain the IP address settings automatically via DHCP.

4. Use Static IP Address

The fixed IP address is usually used in some DSL broadband services or intranet, and

an IP address must be entered manually in configuring the network. You will need to

enter the following information:

IP Address

The IP address is a 32-bit digit code used to identify each single entity on a network.

The IP address is separated into 4 groups of eight bits separated by dots. (e.g.

61.218.1.5)

Subnet Mask

The subnet mask is used to define computer within the same local network. It is a 32-

bit digit code. (e.g. 255.255.255.0)

Default Gateway

The gateway is generally referred as an interchange point that connects two networks.

If you don’t know the gateway’s IP address, please ask your ISP or network

administrator.

There are several available options in addition to the basic settings:

Allow entering administration web pages from external network

If this option was not enabled, you will not be able to perform system administration from

the computers connected to the WAN port. You may also assign the HTTP port number

for entering administration web pages.

Disable response to ICMP packets to avoid attacks from hackers

For additional security, when enabling this option, outside computers cannot use the 'ping'

program to probe for IP address of this server.

• LAN Configuration

If you use the Disk On-line Server as the gateway to connect to the Internet, there is

normally no need to change the LAN configuration. Simply change the network

configuration of the computers on the LAN to automatically obtain IP addresses via

DHCP protocol. By default, the Disk On-line Server provides the NAT function to allow

the computers on your LAN to share a single WAN IP address for Internet access.

Fixed IP address

The IP address is a 32-bit digit code used to identify each single entity on a network. This

address will be used for all clients in the internal LAN to access this Disk On-line Server.

You can check the current LAN IP address of the Disk On-line Server from the LCD

panel (see Appendix A).

Subnet Mask

The subnet mask is used to define computer within the same local network. It is a 32-bits

digit code: 255.xxx.xxx.xxx.

Default Gateway

The gateway is generally referred as an interchange point that connects two networks,

such as LAN and WAN. You don’t need to configure gateway address if NAT function is

enabled; just set it as 0.0.0.0.

Enable DHCP Server

Once the DHCP server function is activated, the Disk On-line Server will assign dynamic

IP addresses to any computer in the local network that is configured to automatically

obtain IP addresses.

Note: Only one DHCP server can be activated at any time in a network, or it may cause

errors in communication.

Enable NAT Function(NAS-2108RW/NAS-101RW Only)

NAT (Network Address Translation) allows the clients that use the internal private IP

address to access the Internet. This option should be enabled if you use the Disk On-line

Server to connect to the Internet.

Wireless LAN Configuration

Your Disk On-line Server is designed to act as an Access Point (AP) in the wireless

LAN. The system is fully compliant with IEEE 802.11b standard, and provides

powerful WEP encryption support for wireless security enhancement.

• Network File Services

Microsoft Networking

Users using the Disk On-line Server on the Microsoft Windows operating systems

must start Microsoft Network Services.

If the local network has a WINS server installed, please specify the IP address. The Disk

On-line Server will automatically register its name and IP address with the WINS service.

Or you can enable your Disk On-line Server as the WINS server for your network.

Apple Networking

Users using the Disk On-line Server on Apple Mac operating systems muse enable

AppleTalk network support.

If your AppleTalk network uses extended networks and is assigned with multiple zones,

please assign a zone name to the Disk On-line Server. If you do not want to assign a

network zone, please enter an asterisk (*). Asterisk (*) is the default setting.

NFS Service

Users using Disk On-line Server on Unix/Linux operating system computer or server

must start Unix/Linux NFS service. The Disk On-line Server supports NFS version 2.0.

To correctly use the NFS service, you must assign a User’s UID and IP address. Please

select User Management · Users · NFS Settings to start the setup.

NetWare Service

If you wish to use NetWare to access the Disk On-line Server, you should activate the

NetWare service. The Disk On-line Server will then operate in a manner similar to a

Novell NetWare 3.12 file server.

Web Service

Other than standard OS support, you have the choice to use a web browser to access your

files on the Disk On-line Server. If your Disk On-line server is connected to the Internet

and uses a valid IP address, the Disk On-line Server allows you to access your files using

a web browser from anywhere in the world.

FTP Service

If you wish to download files from or upload files to your Disk On-line Server by using

file transfer protocol (FTP), you must first activate the FTP service.

• DNS Service

DNS (Domain Name System) is used to map a domain name to its corresponding IP

address and vice versa. A DNS server provides the domain name service through the

network. Using this, you can create and manage your domain name in the Internet. If you

do not know how to register a domain name, please contact your ISP. According to your

domain configuration, you can configure the Disk On-line Server as the primary DNS

server or as the secondary DNS server.

Primary DNS Server

The primary name server is responsible for maintaining a list of host name records and

their associated IP addresses. You can add the following name records to your domain:

A Forward Address Record

NS Name Server Record

MX Mail Exchange Server Record

You may also specify the forwarding servers; the Disk On-line Server will forward all

DNS requests that can't be resolved locally to the specified DNS server (typically your

ISP) and return the response to the client.

Secondary DNS Server

The Disk On-line Server can be configured as a secondary DNS server to provide

redundant DNS service for your domain.

• Network Printer Service (For NAS-2108R/NAS-2108RW Only)

The network printer service enables printer sharing via Microsoft or Apple networking.

Please refer to Chapter 5 for detailed procedure to configure the network printer.

• Router and Firewall Configuration

Routing Table

The static route defines the network path to reach a specific network or host. You may

need to set up a static route if this system is connected to more than one network.

If you do not have other routers in the network, you will not need to add any static routing

entry. The system will use the default routing table for communication between WAN

and LAN.

Virtual Server

This feature allows you to make the service provided by the internal server accessible to

the users from Internet. The Internet users will then use the WAN IP address of the Disk

On-line Server to access all of your virtual servers.

One-to one NAT

This feature allows you to map an external public IP address to an internal private IP

address hidden by NAT. To use this feature, you will need to have more than one public

IP address from your ISP. You can use this feature to have several servers using internal

IP addresses to be accessed from the Internet.

Special Application

This feature allows you to use some on-line applications that require 2-way

communication or simultaneous sessions. If you use on-line games, conferencing or

messaging software, you may need to configure this function.

Web Site Filter

The web site filter provides a mean to block access to undesirable web sites. If a web site

address is added into web site filter, access to that site is blocked for all clients in the

internal LAN.

Web Content Filter

The web content filter allows you to block access to web sites with undesirable contents.

Advanced Firewall Rule

This feature allows administrators to define a set of rules to examine the network packet

flow between internal LAN and external WAN. By default, all packets from external

networks are denied except for web site requests. No packets from the internal network

are blocked or discarded.

DMZ

This feature allows one computer on your LAN to be exposed to all users on the

Internet. This can allow 2-way communication between the DMZ host and other

users from the external network. If you meet troubles to use some Internet gaming or

video-conferencing application on your local computer, you may try to configure this

computer as the DMZ host.

• DDNS Service

DDNS (Dynamic DNS) service allows the Internet users to use a domain name to access

the Disk On-line Server or the servers on your LAN rather than an IP address. This

feature is particularly useful if you are using the broadband service that assigns a dynamic

WAN IP address. To activate the DDNS service, you must first apply an account from a

free DDNS service provider (See Appendix D).

Note: The Disk On-line Server currently supports the DynDNS (http://www.dyndns.org/)

DDNS service.

Disk Configuration

The Disk On-line Server can accommodate a maximum of four disks ( NAS-2108R/NAS-

2108RW can accommodate a maximum of two disks ) . The Disk Volume can be configured

according to your needs.

• Single Disk

You can choose to use a stand-alone disk. However, if the disk is damaged, all data will

be lost.

• RAID 5 Disk Volume (For NAS-104R Only)

Three or more hard disks can be teamed up to form a large-capacity RAID 5 disk group.

This system will distribute and store data among its various member disks as it is received.

At the same time it uses an amount of space roughly equivalent to a whole disk to store

reference numbers with the same elements. Should one of the disks in the group suffer

some kind of damage, you can shut down the computer and install a new disk, and the

system will restore the data on the new disk using the reference number. In addition, if

you have a system with four disks but use only three in your RAID 5 group, the fourth

will serve as a spare disk. If one of the three disks is damaged the system will

automatically start using the spare disk without powering down and changing the affected

disk. Generally speaking, the capacity of a RAID 5 disk group is one disk’s worth of

space less than the total rated capacity of the group.

Note. RAID 5 may be used only with equipment which has three or more disks.

• RAID 1 Mirroring Disk Volume

Mirroring Disk protects your data by automatically backing up the contents of one disk

onto the second disk of a mirrored pair. This protects your data if one of the disks fails.

Unfortunately, the storing capacity is equal to a single disk, as the second drive is used to

automatically back up the first. Mirroring Disk is suitable for personal or corporate use to

store important data.

• RAID 0 Striping Disk Volume

Striping disk combines two or more disks into one larger disk. It offers the fastest disk

access but it does not have any protection of your data if the striped array fails. The disk

capacity equals the number of disks in the array times the size of the smallest disk.

Striping disk is usually used to maximize your disk capacity or for fast disk access but not

for storing important data.

• Linear Disk Volume

You can combine two or more disks into one larger disk. During file saving, the files are

saved on physical disks but do not have a disk failure file protection function. The overall

capacity of linear disks is the sum of all disks. Linear disks are generally used for storing

large data and are not appropriate to use for protection of important data.

By factory default, the Disk On-line Server has been pre-set into one large disk. If you wish

to use other disk configurations, the settings can be changed during the first Quick

Configuration access. Furthermore, to increase the hard disk life, the hard disk will go to

standby mode if there is no access within 30 minutes. If any data access happens while the

hard disk is in stand-by mode, it will take 3 or 5 seconds for the hard disk to return to normal

mode. You can select System Tools · Hardware Settings to change the setting.

You can also perform the following disk administration:

• Create Disk Volume

• Delete Disk Volume

• Examine Disk Volume

• Format Disk Volume

• View Disk & Volume Status

User Management

The Disk On-line Server can share its files with multiple users. It is important to plan and

organize users and user groups’ accessibility to ease the administration work.

• User

The factory default settings contains the following user settings:

Administrator

By default, the Administrator is a member of the Administrators group and has access to

the system Administration. You cannot delete the user Administrator.

Guest

When you use a non-registered user name to login, the server recognizes it as a guest and

will allow limited access. A guest does not belong to any user group. You cannot delete

the user guest or create a password.

Anonymous

When you connect to the server by FTP service, you can use the name to login as a guest.

You cannot delete this user or change its password.

You can create a new user according to your needs. The following information is required

to create a new user:

• User Name

The user name must not exceed 32 characters. It is case insensitive and it can contain

double-byte characters (Such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) But it cannot contain

any of the characters below:

" / \ [ ] : ; | = , + * ? < > ` '

• Password

The password must not exceed 16 characters. Due to security concerns, the password

must be at least 6 characters. Try to avoid using codes that are easily decipherable.

You can perform the following settings for users:

• Create User

• Change Password

• Create Private Network Share

• Assign User Groups

• NFS Settings

• Quota Settings

• Delete User

 User Groups

To administer access rights, you can create user groups. User groups are a collection of

users with the same access rights to files or folders. By factory default, the server

contains the following pre-defined user groups:

Administrators

All members of the administrators group have the rights to perform system management.

You cannot delete the administrators user groups.

Everyone

All registered users belongs to everyone group. You cannot delete the everyone user

group or any of its users.

You can administer user groups with the following:

• Create User Groups

• Create Private Network Share

• Assign Users

• Delete User Groups

User groups name must not exceed 256 characters. It is case insensitive and it can

contain double-byte characters (Such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) But it cannot

contain any of the characters below:

" / \ [ ] : ; | = , + * ? < > ` '

To properly manage security, it is very important to manage users and user groups. You

may set the share access parameters of each user or user group accordingly.

• PDC Authentication Settings

If you have a Windows PDC (Primary Domain Controller) server to handle the domain

security in your network, you don’t need to re-enter all the users and groups with the Disk

On-line Server. You can simply enable the PDC authentication feature; the Disk On-line

Server will connect with the NT domain and get all the information of the domain users

and groups automatically.

To enable PDC authentication, you must enter the domain name as well as the user name

and password already established in this domain. The Disk On-line Server will use the

user name and password to log in to the NT domain and retrieve user and group

information. Once you have configured the Disk On-line Server to use PDC

authentication, all NT domain users and groups will appear in lists of users and groups for

which you can define access rights.

Note: NetWare users cannot be authenticated via the PDC server. To properly

authenticate NetWare users, please go to User Management · Users · Change

Password page and type the password for that user manually.

• Quota

The amount of space given out to all users in the system can be limited in order to

manage and allocate it efficiently. Once these restrictions are in place, users will be

prevented from obtaining more space once they have reached their limit. This prevents

monopolizing of a large amount of disk space by a small group of users. No limitations

are set on the system when it leaves the factory.

• Backup/Restore User Settings

You may back up all user settings on to your computer as well as restore previously

backed up user settings file to your Disk On-line Server. This function allows you to

easily maintain the user settings.

Network Share Management

The primary purpose of network storage is file sharing. In a standard operation environment,

you can create different network share folders for various types of files, or provide different

file access rights to users or user groups. By factory default, a “public” share folder is

created. The share folder gives full access to all users or guests.

Administer network shares with the following:

• Create a Network Share

• Change the name, path and comment of a network share

• Set access right for a network share

• Remove a network share

You can create new network shares according to your needs. While creating a network share

the following parameters must be set:

• Network Share Name

The network share name must not exceed 12 characters. It cannot contain double-byte

characters (such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) as well as the characters listed below:

" . + = / \ : | * ? < > ; [ ] %

• Disk Volume

The network share will be created under the specified disk volume.

• Path

All data are stored under the assigned path onto the disk volume. You can select Specify

Path Automatically to allow the server to automatically create a new path on the disk

volume to store the network share files. Or you can assign a specific path for the share

folder. The manually assigned path cannot exceed 256 characters and cannot contain the

characters listed below:

" \ : | * ? < > ; ` '

• Comment

The Comment field allows a brief description of the share folder to help users identify its

purpose in a network neighborhood window. The comment cannot exceed 128 characters.

Once the network share is created, you can start assigning access rights to users or user

groups:

• Full Access

Full access allows the user or user group to read, write, create, or remove all files and

directories in the network share.

• Read Only

Reads files only in the network share but denies functions to write, create or delete files or

directories.

• Deny Access

Denies all files on the network share.

System Tools

The following system tools allow optimized maintenance or management of your Disk On-

line Server:

• SNMP Settings

In order to use Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to manage the Disk On-

line Server's network components, the SNMP service must be started.

• Alert Notification

Configures administrator’s e-mail address and SMTP server’s IP address. In case of

warning or malfunction, an email is automatically sent to the administrator.

• Restart / Shutdown

Powers off or restarts the Disk On-line Server.

• Hardware Settings

light will still shine.

• System Update

Performs system software updates. Make sure that the image file that you are about to

update is the correct version and read through the instructions carefully. It is wise to back

up all existing data on the Disk On-line Server prior to performing system software

update. The current settings will remain unchanged after the system is upgraded.

• Change Logo

You can place a picture that you desire on the upper right corner of the home page. The

size of the picture cannot exceed 20K.

• Remote Replication

provide schedule Full/Incremental/Sync remote replication.

Statistics & Logs

You can monitor the current logon user of the Disk On-line Server and the system event logs

for the purpose of user administration or system diagnostic reference.

• Active Users

Displays information of all online users.

• Event Logs

The Disk On-line Server can store thousands of recent event logs, including warning,

error and information messages. In the event of a system malfunction (LCD error

indicator lights up), the event logs can be retrieved to help diagnose the system problem.

• DHCP Logs

Registering a Dynamic Domain Name

Introduction

Your Disk On-line Server supports the DDNS service provided by DynDNS. You can go to

the web site of DynDNS (http://www.dyndns.org/) and register for a dynamic domain name.

Configure and activate the DDNS service, then the Internet users will be able to access your

Disk On-line Server via this dynamic domain name. When the ISP assigns a new WAN IP

address, the Disk On-line Server will update the new address to the DynDNS server
