NAS without Internet connection

Post by michelz »

In light of recent malware attacks and other security reasons I'd like to keep my NAS disconnected from the Internet. So I placed it on a separate VLAN that has no connection to the World Wide Web. I would like to keep stuff up to date however. Is there a way to point the NAS to a local or cached repository where I can place the updated firmware and app packages so the NAS can pick it up there?

just download the updated firmware and programs yourself

also malware attacks happen via port forwards and not with the nas accessing the web
