ow we want to backup the NAS box on BE server. 

please suggest the additional agents we need to purchase other than media server License....

You would require additional Agent for Windows license for the NAS backup.

I would recommend to confirm the same with the Licensing team directly @ http://www.symantec.com/support/assistance_care.jsp

Case 1:

An Agent for Windows license is required for CIFS-level backup of the NAS's data.

Case 2:

BE doesn't offer any replication capabilities. Though, if you plan on management, monitoring, job delegation and other features, the Enterprise Server Option may help. Have a look @ this whitepaper for more info - https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/articles/backup-exec-2014-technical-white-paper-enterprise-server-option

thankyou VJware,

so as per my understanding if we want to have backup of NAS box on IBM x3100, we need to procure.

1 Media licence

as media licence have agent for Windows licence included. or we need to go with additional licence of Agent for windows.
