3.3.3 Filename Encoding Setting

Select the language TS-109 uses to display files and directories.

Note: All files and directories on TS-109 will be created using Unicode
encoding. If your FTP clients or the OS of your PC does not support
Unicode, e.g. Windows

®

95/98/ME, select the language the same as
your OS here in order to view the files and directories on the server
properly.

3.3.4 View System Settings

You can view all current system settings, e.g. server name, on this page.

- 44 -

3.4 Network Settings

You can configure network settings in this section and enable several powerful

applications of TS-109, e.g. Multimedia Station, Download Station, and Web

Server.

3.4.1 TCP/ IP Configuration

You can select one of the following two methods to configure the TCP/IP settings

of TS-109.

• Obtain IP address settings automatically via DHCP

If your network supports DHCP, TS-109 will use DHCP protocol to retrieve the

IP address and related information automatically.

• Use static IP address

To use fixed IP address for network connection, enter fixed IP address, subnet
mask and default gateway.

- 45 -

Primary DNS Server: Enter the IP address of primary DNS server that provides

DNS service for TS-109 in external network.
Secondary DNS Server: Enter the IP address of secondary DNS server that

provides DNS service for TS-109 in external network.

Note:

1. Please contact your ISP or network administrator for the IP address

of primary and secondary DNS servers. When TS-109 plays the role
as a terminal and needs to perform independent connection, e.g. BT
download, you must enter at least one DNS server IP for proper URL
connection. Otherwise, the function may not work properly.

2. If you select to obtain IP address via DHCP, there is no need to

configure the primary and secondary DNS servers. You can enter
“0.0.0.0” in the settings.

Enable DHCP Server

If no DHCP is available in the LAN where TS-109 locates, you can enable this

function to enable TS-109 as a DHCP server and allocate dynamic IP address to

DHCP clients in LAN.

You can set the range of IP addresses allocated by DHCP server and the lease

time. Lease time refers to time that IP address is leased to the clients by DHCP

server. When the time expires, the client has to acquire an IP address again.

For example, to establish a DLNA network, and share the multimedia files on TS-

109 to DLNA DMP via UPnP while there is no NAT gateway that supports DHCP

server, you can enable DHCP server of TS-109. TS-109 will allocate dynamic IP

address to DMP or other clients automatically and set up a local network.

Note: If there is an existing DHCP server in your LAN, do not enable
this function. Otherwise, there will be IP address allocation and network
access errors.

- 46 -

Jumbo Frame Settings (MTU)

"Jumbo Frames" refer to Ethernet frames that are larger than 1500 bytes. It is

designed to enhance Ethernet networking throughput and reduce the CPU

utilization of large file transfers by enabling more efficient larger payloads per

packet.

Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) refers to the size (in bytes) of the largest

packet that a given layer of a communications protocol can transmit.

TS-109 uses standard Ethernet frames: 1500 bytes by default. If your network

appliances support Jumbo Frame setting, select the appropriate MTU value for

your network environment. TS-109 supports 4074 and 7418 bytes for MTU.

Note: Jumbo Frame setting is valid in Gigabit network environment
only. Besides, all network appliances connected must enable Jumbo
Frame and use the same MTU value.

- 47 -

3.4.2 Microsoft Networking

9 WINS server

If the local network has a WINS server installed, specify the IP address. TS-

109 will automatically register its name and IP address with WINS service. If

you have a WINS server in your network and want to use this server, enter
the WINS server IP.

9 Domain Master

There is a unique Domain Master Browser for collecting and recording

resources and services available for each PC in the network or workgroup of

Windows.

When you find the waiting time for accessing Network Neighborhood too long,

it may be caused by failure of an existing master browser, or there is no

master browser in the network. If there is no master browser in your network,

you can check the box Domain Master in this section to configure TS-109 as

the master browser to enhance the speed of accessing information on

Network Neighborhood.

that you disable Unicode support here and select the language the same as

your OS in “System Settings—Encoding Setting” page so that the folders and

files on FTP can be properly shown (please refer to Chapter 3.3.3). If your

FTP client supports Unicode, make sure you have enabled Unicode support

for both your client and TS-109.

3.4.10 DDNS Service

To set up a server on the Internet and enable users to access it easily, a fixed and

easy-to-remember host name is often required. However, if ISP provides only

dynamic IP address, the IP address of the server will change from time to time

and is difficult to recall. You can enable DDNS service to solve the problem.

After enabling DDNS service of TS-109, whenever TS-109 restarts or the IP

address is changed, TS-109 will notify the DDNS provider immediately to record

the new IP address. When the user tries to connect TS-109 via the host name,

DDNS will transfer the recorded IP address to the user.

Enable and configure DDNS of TS-109:

Before using DDNS service, please register a host name from DDNS provider*.

TS-109 supports the 5 DDNS providers: members.dyndns.org, update.ods.org,

members.dhs.org, www.dyns.cx, www.3322.org.

3.6 User Management

The files on TS-109 can be shared among multiple users. For easier management

and better control of users’ access right, you have to organize users, user groups

and their access right control.

3.6.1 Users

The system has created the following users by default:

n Administrator

By default, administrator has access to system administration and cannot be

deleted.

o Guest

This is a built-in user and will not be displayed on User Management page.

When you use a non-registered user name to login, the server will recognize

the user as a guest and will allow limited access. A guest does not belong to
any user group. The login password for guest is guest.

p Anonymous

This is a built-in user and will not be displayed on User Management page.

When you connect to the server by FTP service, you can use this name to

login as a guest.

- 70 -

256 users can be created at maximum (including system default users). You

can create a new user according to your needs. The following information is

required to create a new user:

9 User name

The user name must not exceed 32 characters. It is case-insensitive and

supports double-byte characters, such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean

except:

" / \ [ ] : ; | = , + * ? < > ` '

9 Password

The password is case-sensitive and can be 16 characters long at maximum.

It is recommended to use a password of at least 6 characters.

You can perform the following settings for users:

- 71 -

3.6.2 User Groups

quota, he/she cannot upload data to the server anymore. By default, no
limitations are set for users. You can modify the following two options:

i. Enable quota for all users
ii. Quota size on each disk volume

Please refer to the following example to configure the quota setting of users:

The IT department is planning to set the disk quota of Mr. Jones Lee from

Administration Department and Ms. Jane Wu from Sales Department on TS-109.

The disk quota is 2000MB for Mr. Jones Lee and 4000MB for Ms. Jane Wu.
