17.11.6 Web Publishing
Web publishing lets you “publish” shares (containing folders and files) on the NAS 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 user name and password.
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-NAS’s-IP-Address/MyWeb/
FamilyPhotos.
Note: The NAS does not use any security for the files in the published folders. It is not
recommended to publish shares if you do not have the NAS behind a good
hardware-based firewall. See page 236 for more on firewalls.
Additionally, you can use HTML editing software (not included) to create an index.html or index.htm
file to define and customize how your website works and looks.
Accessing Web-published Shares from the Internet
You need to use a public address to access the NAS’s web-published shares from the Internet. If
your NAS uses a private IP address, you may need to use the public IP address of your Internet
gateway and configure NAT or port forwarding on your Internet gateway and possibly firewall rules
in order to let people access the NAS’s web-published shares from the Internet.
Web Publishing Port Number
If the web-published shares use a port number other than 80 (the normal port for web traffic),
users must include it after the NAS’s IP address in order to access the NAS’s web-published shares.
For example, say you specified port 8080, the NAS’s IP address is 192.168.1.23, and the name of
the web-published share is FamilyPhotos. You would have to enter “http://192.168.1.23:8080/
MyWeb/FamilyPhotos/” in your browser’s address bar to access the share’s web page.
The NAS’s web configurator uses port 80. To make the web configurator more secure, you can have
the web-published shares use another port number. Then you can configure one set of firewall rules
and NAT or port forwarding settings on your Internet gateway specifically for allowing access to the
web-published shares and another separate set of rules for accessing the NAS’s web configurator.
17.11.7 Printer Sharing
The NAS can act as a print server. A print server lets multiple computers share a printer. Connect a
printer to the NAS’s USB port to let multiple computers on your network use it. See www.zyxel.com
for a list of compatible printers.
