System Settings
Basic system settings include the server name, date, time, and language settings.
• Server Name
You must assign a unique name for your Kanguru iNAS 100 for ease of
identification within the local network. The server name can accommodate as
much as 14 characters, which can be a combination of letters (A-Z or a-z),
numbers (0-9) and hyphens (-). The server will not accept names containing
blank spaces, periods (.), or names with only numbers. The LCD display will
show the current server name.
Next, you must configure your Kanguru iNAS 100 to the workgroup. The
workgroup represents a basic computer group within the Microsoft Network.
Files are normally shared within the group. Workgroups can accommodate as
much as 15 characters but must exclude the following characters:
; : " < > * + = \ | ? , [ ] /
The first character cannot be a period (.). For ease of management and usage,
please set your Kanguru iNAS 100 and attached computer(s) in the same
workgroup.
Moreover, the Kanguru iNAS 100 allows you to specify comments (such as
administrator name, department, or location) that describe the Kanguru iNAS
100 for ease of identification to an online user.
• Date & Time
Set the date, time, and time zone according to your location. If the settings are
incorrectly entered, the following problems may occur:
1. When using a web browser to access or save a file, the time of the file
accessed or saved may be out of sync.
2. The system event log time will be incorrect compared to the actual time an
action occurred.
