Below are screen shots of the Quick Set-up option. Within the quick set-up we will set-up the
protocols that we want the ARNC5J to run. As with all network devices, it is always
recommended to only enable those protocols that are required. The more protocols that are
enabled, the greater the network traffic on the network.
