The NFS service row has one additional NFS Sessions icon that opens the NFS Sessions screen.
The SMB service row has two additional icons that link to other screens:
- Audit Logs opens the Audit screen.
- SMB Sessions opens the SMB Status screen.
Select Start Automatically to set the service to start after the system reboots.
