Service Binding

NAS services run on all available network interfaces by default. Service binding enables you to bind services

to specific network interfaces to increase security. You can bind services to one or more specific wired or

wireless network interfaces.

Important

Configuring service binding does not affect users currently connected to the NAS. When

users reconnect they will only be able to access the configured services using the specified

network interfaces.

2. Select Enable Service Binding.

A list of available services and interfaces is displayed.
