Type in the name of the NAS system in the Web address field, and then press <Enter>.

 

The default system name is Dellxxxxxxx, where xxxxxxx is the system's service tag number, which is located on the top of the system. For example, if
your service tag number is 1234567, enter http://DELL1234567.

 

The NAS Manager is served on port 1279 and is accessed using the following Web address: 

https://systemname:1279 or

https://system_ipaddress:1279, where systemname is Dellxxxxxxx (xxxxxxx is the system's service tag number). For example, if your service tag
number is 1234567, you would enter https://DELL1234567:1279. Port 1279 uses secure socket layer (SSL) to encrypt data going to and coming from the
NAS system to provide data security.
