10.3 What You Need to Know

FTP

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a file transfer service that operates on the Internet. A system running the FTP server accepts commands from a system running an FTP client. FTP is not a secure protocol. Your file transfers could be subject to snooping.

FTPES (File Transfer Protocol over Explicit TLS/SSL)

File Transfer Protocol over Explicit TLS/SSL (FTPES) is a file transfer service that uses either TLS (Transport Layer Security) or SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) for secure transfers across the Internet.

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

For example, if you want to share photos in a FamilyPhotos share, you could “web publish” it and others could use a web browser to access the photos at http://my-NSA’s-IP-Address/MyWeb/ FamilyPhotos.

Broadcatching

Broadcatching is the downloading of digital content from Internet feeds. Use broadcatching to have the NSA download frequently updated digital content like TV programs, radio shows, podcasts (audio files), and blogs.

RSS

RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a format for delivering frequently updated digital content. A channel uses a feed to deliver its contents (items). Subscribe the NSA to a feed to be able to download the contents.
