How to connect a NAS to QuWAN Orchestrator using QuWAN Express and the Super Node Service?

如何使用 QuWAN Express 和 Super Node 服務將 NAS 連接到 QuWAN Orchestrator？

• The NAS must have an active internet connection for the check to pass.
• The check confirms whether the L2TP/IPSec server is disabled because it must be turned off before you continue.
• The check verifies that the NAS is signed in with a QNAP ID and prompts you to log in when necessary.

1. Click .
   The Edit Device Information window appears.
2. Optional: Select the QuWAN Organization from the dropdown.
   If your QNAP ID is a member of multiple organizations, select the organization that will manage this NAS.
3. Optional: Select an option to determine the region where the NAS establishes its QuWAN connection:
   • Auto (Recommended): QVPN Service automatically chooses the best region. It prioritizes regions where a hub router exists for your organization. If a hub is unavailable, it falls back to a Super Node region.
   • Super Node: Force connection to the QuWAN Super Node cloud endpoint.
     Note

     Use when there is no hub in your organization or when you want immediate cloud endpoint access. When using Super Node, the NAS receives a cloud-assigned public IP and port for external connectivity without port forwarding.
   • Custom Region: Manually select a region when you want the NAS to join a particular segment of your QuWAN organization.
4. Click Apply.
   QVPN Service updates the device registration settings locally and prepares to register the device with QuWAN Orchestrator.

The NAS is registered to QuWAN Orchestrator and becomes an edge NAS.
Once the NAS successfully joins the QuWAN organization, the following actions occur automatically:

• The QuWAN Orchestrator assigns a Virtual IP address to the NAS inside the QuWAN overlay network.
• If a hub router exists in the assigned region, the NAS will automatically establish an IPSec tunnel with that hub.
• If connected to a Super Node, the NAS will receive a public IP address and port assigned by the cloud endpoint enabling secure external access without manual port forwarding.

Once connected the NAS is reachable via the QuWAN virtual network by other edge devices and by users who have appropriate QuWAN access (for example, remote clients or other NAS devices).

1. Log into QuWAN Orchestrator.
2. Select your organization.
3. Go to QuWAN Device.
4. Locate the NAS by the device name.
5. Under Topology Status, check if the status is Connected.

• 檢查通過時，NAS 必須有有效的網際網路連線。
• 檢查確認 L2TP/IPSec 伺服器是否已停用，因為在繼續之前必須關閉。
• 檢查驗證 NAS 是否已使用 QNAP ID 登入，並在必要時提示您登入。

1. 按一下。
   顯示編輯裝置資訊視窗。
2. 選擇性：從下拉選單中選擇QuWAN 組織。
   如果您的 QNAP ID 是多個組織的成員，請選擇將管理此 NAS 的組織。
3. 選擇選項以決定 NAS 建立其 QuWAN 連線的地區（可選）：
   • 自動（推薦）：QVPN VPN 伺服器自動選擇最佳地區。它優先選擇您的組織中存在 Hub 路由器的地區。如果 Hub 不可用，則會回退到超級節點地區。
   • 超級節點：強制連接到 QuWAN 超級節點雲端端點。
     注意

     當您的組織中沒有 Hub 或您希望立即訪問雲端端點時使用。使用超級節點時，NAS 會接收到雲端分配的公共 IP 和端口，以便外部連接而無需端口轉發。
   • 自訂地區：手動選擇地區，當您希望 NAS 加入 QuWAN 組織的特定區段時。
4. 點擊套用。
   QVPN VPN 伺服器在本地更新設備註冊設定並準備將設備註冊到 QuWAN Orchestrator。

NAS 註冊到 QuWAN Orchestrator 並成為 Edge NAS。
一旦 NAS 成功加入 QuWAN 組織，以下動作會自動發生：

• QuWAN Orchestrator 在 QuWAN 覆蓋網路內分配虛擬 IP 位址給 NAS。
• 如果分配的地區中存在 Hub 路由器，NAS 會自動與該 Hub 建立 IPSec 隧道。
• 如果連接到超級節點，NAS 會接收到由雲端端點分配的公共 IP 位址和端口，啟用安全的外部訪問而無需手動端口轉發。

連線後，NAS 可透過 QuWAN 虛擬網路由其他 Edge 裝置及具有適當 QuWAN 存取權限的使用者（例如，遠端客戶端或其他 NAS 裝置）存取。

1. 登入 QuWAN Orchestrator。
2. 選擇您的組織。
3. 前往QuWAN  裝置。
4. 透過裝置名稱找到 NAS。
5. 在拓撲狀態下，檢查狀態是否為已連線。
