NAS SERVER MENGGUNAKAN STB OPENWRT DI BALAI DESA GEDUNGAN SUMENEP

Advances in information technology and the use of computers and gadgets have penetrated various levels of society, including companies, homes and campuses. This development is supported by advances in computer network technology, especially the shift from wired to wireless media (Wi-Fi). The increase in the number of computer users accessed individually or on a network causes the need for efficient servers and large data storage media. However, high licensing and hardware costs are prohibitive. The solution that emerged was Network Attached Storage (NAS), a special server with an operating system to manage data files. NAS can be accessed over a local network with TCP/IP protocols and provides a more economical alternative to traditional servers. The advantages of NAS include fast data access, easy management, and simple configuration. This journal proposes the use of a NAS Server with STB OpenWRT as a data storage solution at the Gedungan Sumenep Village Hall. By implementing a village data storage system, it is hoped that services to the community can be improved. Several village agencies often experience problems in providing maximum services due to difficulties in accessing and managing important data or letters. NAS storage systems are expected to be able to overcome these problems with low manufacturing costs, maintain data security, and reduce the risk of human or computer error.
