CHAPTER 2
NAS Starter Utility
Note: Installing this version of the NAS Starter Utility will uninstall previous versions.
2.1 Overview
Use the NAS Starter Utility to find, set up, and manage the NSA as well as copy files to it and access
the files on it.
Make sure you have a backup of any existing data in the hard disk before
installing it in the NSA. Using the initialization wizard formats the hard
disk and deletes all data in the process.
The NAS Starter Utility supports Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8. Click
Help to open a web help page about the NAS Starter Utility screens. NAS Starter Utility screens are
shown here as they display with the Windows platform.
Note: Refer to the Quick Start Guide for your NSA’s hardware connections and the steps
for installing the NAS Starter Utility.
2.2 Starting the NAS Starter Utility
• The NAS Starter Utility broadcasts a request packet when you first run it. Each NSA has an NAS
Starter Utility Agent that always listens and responds to requests from the NAS Starter Utility.
The NAS Starter Utility receives the response packet that contains information, such as host
name, IP, and so on.
• If you plan to use more than one NSA in your network, configure them with unique server
names. This enables you to identify each NSA in the NAS Starter Utility screens.
2.3 NAS Seeker Screen
Use this screen to view the NSAs in your network. The NSA’s Server Name. The default is ‘nsa’
followed by the number of your model (‘nsa320’ for example). See Section 2.8 on page 27 for how
to change it to a more recognizable one in your network.
