It requests for a mutual method of encryption from the FTP server for its file transfer sessions. Your
FTP client must be set to use FTPES as in the following example.
Figure 71 FTP Client Example
Media Server
The media server feature lets anyone on your network play video, music, and photos from the NSA
(without having to copy them to another computer). The NSA can function as a DLNA-compliant
media server and/or an iTunes server. The NSA streams files to DLNA-compliant media clients or
computers using iTunes. The Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) is a group of personal computer
and electronics companies that works to make products compatible in a home network.
iTunes Server
The NSA iTunes server feature lets you use Apple’s iTunes software on a computer to play music
and video files stored on the NSA. You can download iTunes from www.apple.com.
Download Service
The NSA’s download service downloads files from the Internet directly to the NSA. You do not have
to download to your computer and then copy to the NSA. This can free up your computer’s system
resources.
The NSA can download using these protocols.
• HTTP: The standard protocol for web pages.
• FTP: A standard Internet file transfer service.
• P2P download: Peer-to-peer files sharing protocol.
Web Publishing
Web publishing lets you “publish” shares (containing folders and files) on the NSA so people can
access the files using a web browser without having to log into the Web Configurator. This way you
can share files with others without them having to know and enter a username and password.
