Would a question asking how Synology's setup works be on topic? I don't have a problem, I'm just intrigued as to how find.synology.com works.

@fredley prolly not I suspect

What does it do?

@JourneymanGeek When you buy a new NAS and plug it into your network, you go to that URL and it finds it for you.

Redirects to 192.168.whatever

ahh. Probably zeroconf, or a known hostname?

(how does it work questions don't always work well)

@JourneymanGeek No idea. Never seen it before, and it was magical
