QNAP Announces Availability of New NAS Management Software, V3.6, Featuring VPN, LDAP, and Proxy Servers, and Cloud Photo and Music Sharing Capability

Taipei, Taiwan, February 15, 2012 --(PR.com)-- QNAP Systems, Inc. today announced the availability of its latest NAS management software for its Turbo NAS series, providing highly anticipated business features such as VPN LDAP and Proxy Servers. V3.6 NAS management software also adds support for cloud photo and music sharing, a new version of MyCloudNAS 1.2, and QPKG center, and several enhanced backup features.

"The new business-class features have received really positive feedback from beta users," said Jason Hsu, product manager of QNAP. The VPN Server offers businesses a cost-saving way to create a secure private network with up to 256-bit encryption. The LDAP Server simplifies mass account management and reduces business' IT hardware expenditure. The Proxy Server provided together with the "Squid" QPKG provides IT administrators with a great solution to manage network loading, whilst maintaining network security.

"We have also strived to simplify the process of sharing photos and music over the Internet and made it easier to install 'add-ons' onto the Turbo NAS," added Hsu. The brand new Music Station turns the Turbo NAS into a 'cloud music center' capable of hosting terabytes of songs and the Photo Station makes online photo sharing simple and fun. The QPKG Center significantly simplifies QPKG installation and management.

The V3.6 NAS management software also includes several backup enhancements for RTRR and rsync backup, and third-party cloud backup, as well as introducing the new NetBak Replicator 4.
