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.
