4.3 Logging into uNAS/tNAS
You can establish a connection to uNAS/tNAS from every network computer. To establish this connection,
use a browser (e.g. Microsoft Internet Explorer) and enter the IP address or the name of the computer
hosting the NAS-R3 R server into the URL entry line: https://192.168.0.220 (standard address) or
https://nas (this name can be changed in the installation of uNAS/tNAS).
For security reasons, uNAS/tNAS uses the encrypted SSL protocol (https).
You will now be asked for verification of the encryption certification. Since uNAS/tNAS does not allow for
creating shares on the Internet but only on the Intranet, there is no need for global certification by an
authorized body. You can accept the certificate for the session only, but also for all future use. Now you
have to accept the license in order to use the Open-E software and you can choose the language you want
to use. Page with the software agreement and available language option will be shown after first launching
uNAS/tNAS. Later you can change the language you can change using Language Settings, which are
located in “server” through “setup”.
You can log into uNAS/tNAS using the standard password “admin” (this can be changed later). In order to
start working, you can now set all parameters.
Password checking is case-sensitive. If you cannot log into uNAS/tNAS, please check the status of the
Shift and Caps Lock keys. In case your web browser will show something different then expected, please
delete the cache & cookies in settings menu of your web browser.
