first, apache is not required
second, you'll need to open a port in your router if you intend to have people listen across the internet
third, if you want to check if DNAS is working locally, the IP address to use is your private IP address (usually something like 192.168.x.x - check what it is by running ipconfig in windows or ifconfig in linux, don't know about other operating systems)
