Advanced Options
WINS s e rv e r:
If you have a WINS server on your network and want to use this
server, enter the WINS server IP. The NAS will automatically register its name and
IP address with the WINS service. Do not enable this option if you are unsure about
the settings.
Loc a l Dom a in M a s te r:
A Domain Master Browser is responsible for collecting and
recording resources and services available for each PC on the network or a
workgroup of Windows. When you find the waiting time for loading network
resources to be too long, it may be caused by a failure of an existing master
browser or a missing master browser on the network. If there is no master browser
on your network, select the option "Domain Master" to configure the NAS as the
master browser. Do not enable this option if you are unsure about the settings.
Allow only NTLM v 2 a uthe ntic a tion:
NTLMv2 stands for NT LAN Manager version 2.
When this option is enabled, login to the shared folders by Microsoft Networking will
only be allowed using NTLMv2 authentication. If the option is disabled, NTLM (NT
LAN Manager) will be used by default and NTLMv2 can be negotiated by the client.
The default setting is disabled.
Na m e re s olution priority :
You can select to use DNS server or WINS server to
resolve client host names from IP addresses. When you set up your NAS to use a
WINS server or to be a WINS server, you can choose to use DNS or WINS first for
name resolution. When WINS is enabled, the default setting is "Try WINS then DNS".
Otherwise, DNS will be used for name resolution by default.
