CHAPTER 6
System Setting
6.1 Overview
This chapter gives an overview of the various features included in the system
setting screens. You can identify your NSA on the network and set the time that
the NSA follows for its scheduled tasks/logs.
6.2 What You Can Do
•Use the Server Name screen (Section 6.4 on page 140) to specify the NSA’s
server and workgroup names.
•Use the Date/Time screen (Section 6.5 on page 141) to set up date/time and
choose a time zone for the NSA.
6.3 What You Need to Know
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 is included by default in Windows operating systems.
You can use Samba with Linux to use CIFS.
CIFS transfers use security.
Time Lag
Time lag occurs when the time on the NSA falls behind the time on the time
server. This may happen if:
the time server is no longer reachable
if the NSA is shut down often (the NSA internal battery keeps time when the
NSA is shut down and this may cause possible variance)
