nNFS — The Network File System protocol is used by clients running UNIX. (See “Network Protocol Overview: NFS” on page 63.)

nFTP — The File Transfer Protocol is an alternative way of accessing a file share from any operating system. (See “Network Protocol Overview: FTP” on page 78.)

nHTTP — The Hyptertext Transfer Protocol is the protocol for accessing a file share from Web browsers. (See “Network Protocol Overview: HTTP” on page 84.)

nAFP — The AFP Protocol is the protocol used by clients running a Macintosh operating system.

nNCP — The NCP Protocol is the protocol is the protocol used by clients running NetWare.

When you create a share on the DataSafe NAS, you can enable any or all of the listed protocols.
