Backing up Data Files on a NAS

I just recently purchased an EMC NAS. I wanted to know, how I can backup the data files on the NAS? Can I just map a drive and allow Backup Exec connect to the mapped drive or do I have to purchase NetBackup? I just need to back the data files and not the NAS configuration files.

Even though you cannot install the Remote Agent on the NAS, you must purchase one and install the serial on the media server
 
If you cannot connect from the Backup Selections pane, try creating a user defined share using the IP address

Ken,
 
Just wanted to say thanks for your assistance. I followed your advice of adding User-Defined selections. It worked like a champ.
