Windows/CIFS
Common Internet File System (CIFS) is a standard protocol supported by most operating systems in order
to share files across the network.
CIFS runs over TCP/IP but uses the SMB (Server Message Block) protocol found in Microsoft Windows for
file and printer access; therefore, CIFS will allow all applications, not just Web browsers, to open and
share files across the Internet.
The NBG7815 uses Common Internet File System (CIFS) protocol for its file sharing functions. CIFS
compatible computers can access the USB file storage devices connected to the NBG7815. CIFS
protocol is supported on Microsoft Windows, Linux Samba and other operating systems (refer to your
systems specifications for CIFS compatibility).
Samba
SMB is a client-server protocol used by Microsoft Windows systems for sharing files, printers, and so on.
Samba is a free SMB server that runs on most UNIX and UNIX-like systems. It provides an implementation
of an SMB client and server for use with non-Microsoft operating systems.
File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
This is a method of transferring data from one computer to another over a network such as the Internet.
VPN
A virtual private network (VPN) provides secure communications between sites without the expense of
leased site-to-site lines. A secure VPN is a combination of tunneling, encryption, authentication, access
control and auditing. It is used to transport traffic over the Internet or any insecure network that uses
TCP/IP for communication.
8.1.3 Before You Begin
Make sure the NBG7815 is connected to your network and turned on.
1
Connect the USB device to the NBG7815’s USB port.
2
The NBG7815 detects the USB device and makes its contents available for browsing. If you are
connecting a USB hard drive that comes with an external power supply, make sure it is connected to an
appropriate power source that is on.
Note: If your USB device cannot be detected by the NBG7815, see the troubleshooting for
suggestions.
8.2 Parental Control
Parental Control allows you to block specific URLs. You can also define time periods and days during
which the NBG7815 performs parental control on a specific user.
