    Thanks again for your input. You may be correct about the aggregation on my home unit. The aggregation on the business unit is necessary though for sufficient bandwidth to serve video to multiple edit machines at once. TBH I'm not too bothered about the transfer speed between units currently...

    One IP connection 'bridged' across 2 hardware RJ45 ports for increased transfer speeds. A supported feature for this Synology NAS.

    NAS security help.

    Hi Colin Yes it has this setup of very similar. The issue is it will allow you to allow or deny a specific IP, but as far as I can tell will not allow you to deny all others, which is what I'm trying to achieve. Forgive me if I'm being stupid here, like I said I'm new to this technology.

    NAS security help.

    I very much appreciate your input and will take some time to check the documentation and help files etc before I ask any further about Open VPN. With speeds of 500/500mbs at my business address and 500/35mbs at home I've been seeing maximum transfer speeds of 25-30mbs business to home via FTP...

    Hi Colin, Thanks for your reply. The built in Synology firewall allows you to blacklist IP addresses, but sadly doesn't allow you to whitelist, hence my post here.

    NAS security help.

    Just to be clear. When I say a dedicated IP address, I'm not referring to a to a reserved address within my local network, the NAS has a unique public ip address with no other hardware attached. All my other home hardware operates on a different public ip. As for Open VPN, that doesn't seem to...

    NAS security help.

    Hi all. I'm new here, so apologies if this is posted in the wrong place. I recently added a Synology NAS to my home network. It has a dedicated IP that is entirely detached from all my other network hardware. The NAS is used as a backup server for an identical unit at my business address and...
