Managing Port Forwarding Rules
Individual rules cannot be turned off. Only a rule group can be shut off. You can click [Edit] to make any changes to
individual rules, or [Delete] to remove the rule entry.
Configuring a USB Drive as a NAS
You can use a USB drive as a network-attached storage (NAS) device by plugging it into the AirStation. The files on the
device can then be accessed from anywhere on the network.
Note: Not all USB drives are compatible with the AirStation.
Setting Up the NAS
Make sure the USB drive is powered on.
1 Connect the USB drive to the AirStation.
2 On a computer, open Settings and enter “Advanced Settings”.
3 Navigate to [Applications] > [Disk Management].
4 Enable “Automatic USB Disk Assignment”.
