Dear All,

I would like to ask whether if its possible to set my DNS-320L to have multiple IP addresses.  I would like my NAS to be shared amongst users from different IP ranges (for example from 192.168.0.79, 192.164.4.110, 10.1.1.220, etc..)

Would appreciate any comments from the NAS masters here  Thanks.

Simple answer NO.

Complex answer, maybe but it requires a managed switch with port forwarding and those cost much more than the nas box.

Again it should be possible for someone on a different subnet to log in to the nas using FTP via the WAN but it would require that you have the necessary settings and ports opened in your modem/router that would allow connections from the internet.

If this is a work environment then you need to talk with your IT people, they may have the necessary managed switch already in place.

Theoretically, it should be possible to set multiple IP addresses on the NAS's interface using something like ffp and the 'ifconfig' command. Whether that is a recommendable approach is a whole different question. I can't really imagine a scenario where this would seem like a sensible solution...
