This is a very nice cost efficient solution compare to buying a sperate dedicated system for the same job. #3 Leverage Build-In IP CameraĮach Synology comes with some built-in licenses (2 channels) that allow you to connect to IP cameras for home surveillance. If the one account is leaked, then you are putting your entire data in danger. You also want to avoid using one single admin account for all folders and permissions. For instance, if you are also planning to use your NAS as a Plex server, then the Plex account should only be contained and used for this purpose and this purpose only.
If there are more than one user will be using the NAS then its best to create multiple accounts and appropriate permissions to each account that serve its own distinct function and purposes. The same idea applies if you want to hook up IP cameras and use NAS to record daily surveillance footages. If you have Mac at home, you can configure your NAS as Time Machine for all Mac’s backup, but at the same time, you want to restrict the access to the backup folder. This really depends on what you want your NAS to do. Next step is to create shared folders for your need. Once you have the above settings configured properly, all your home devices will not have a universal NAS attached. We need to make sure all the proper ports are forwarded from external access. Also, while we are updating the router’s setting you want to ensure port forwarding are turned on for the external QuickConnect, default Synology diskstation port is 5000. This essentially provides a constant IP address while the router still serves IP address for other home devices via DHCP. What you want to do is go to your home router’s admin panel and find the setting for DHCP reservation. Next, we want to ensure the NAS access at home works across all devices with a static IP address (or via hostname). QuickConnect solves the dynamic IP problem most residential ISP suffers when trying to access any web service externally.Īfter you have setup the QuickConnect, you can access your NAS outside your home with a static web URL.
Synology made it easier for you to reach your NAS with their Quickconnect service. #1 Setup Quickconnect Account & Home Networkįirst thing first, you want to properly configure your NAS so you can have access at home and abroad.
