3) Click your newly created connection to access the contents.
Linux If you are using Linux you are probably comfortable with connecting to servers, and how to do this can vary greatly from distribution to distribution and largely depends on your window manager/display environment. Most systems come with Gnome and it is the default on the very popular Ubuntu distribution, so we'll give an example using the Files tool (also called Nautilus). If you open the app you should have a "Connect to server" option, there you can enter either the \\servername\share or smb://serve
Once you have installed the app you can launch it from that page, and if you want to access it again in the future, in the Files app if you go to the 3 dot menu at the top right and "Add new service" you then select "File System for Windows" from the list and it will give you the dialog to fill out with the server name and some other details, but only the server name/IP and share name are required.
2) Click Scan to find your network storage device.

Introduction Site to Site allows offices in multiple locations to establish secure connections with each other over internet. It extends the company's network, making computers resources from one location available to employees at other locations. Senerio 1: A company has dozens of branch offices that they wish to join in a single private network to share resources.
Defaul port is 51830, if you want to use another port, find the Advanced option at the lower left corner. Due to device's performance, each Site to Site network can have up to 10 devices. After you had chosen the devices, click Continue. Then, it will test each device if it can be set as the Main Node of Site to Site.
We suggest that the router with strong performance and best network speed to be the Main Node. If none of the devices can be used as the Main Node, make sure that: • One of routers has a public IP, either static public IP or dynamic public IP. • Port is open, default is 51830. • If the router is behind NAT, you may need to set up port forwading. You can also change port and try again.
If there are more than one device can be set as the Main Node, you need to choose one to continue.
If there is only one device can be set as the Main Node, it will go to the Site to Site detail page directly. The network is stopped by default, check the LAN IP, if it is OK then you need to click Start button, otherwise click Setting to change LAN IP.
