I was also pleased to see support for iTunes; turn on this feature and your N200 will serve music to all iTunes clients on your network. Figure 5 shows the iTunes setup, and Figure 6 shows how it appears on iTunes running on my iBook. In my tests, this appeared to work fine - the basic idea is that you mount the N200 iTunes network share from one of your computers on the LAN and then deposit your music onto it. The iTunes server will catalog your music and feed it back to all iTunes clients on your network.

The N2100 also supported a number of other services. The box could operate as an FTP server for file access, and it supported file access through the built-in HTTP server. Figure 6 shows access to the filesystem using a Web browser. Note that both HTTP and secure HTTPS access are supported for file browsing and administration.
