ing the Data Tank Gateway behind a router. Please check your router's
DynDNS box.
5.1. Using CIFS (Samba) over the Internet (behind a router)
CIFS (Samba) allows you to access the Data Tank Gateway over the Internet without any
additional software. You can also map a folder on the Data Tank Gateway, i.e., add it to
Windows. Mapped drives are network drives that can be used like normal folders.
1. Open Services -> File Server (CIFS).
2. Check the box next to 'Open Windows File Sharing (CIFS/SMB) on the WAN port'.
3. Confirm by pressing 'Apply'.
4. Forward TCP ports 139 and 445 from the router to the LAN IP on your Data Tank
Gateway. For more information on how to forward a port on your router to the Data
Tank Gateway, please refer to your router's manual.
5. Your LAN is now configured for CIFS (Samba).
