Synology has a hidden package to debug and support their systems. This working on DSM 6 & DMS 7. With a little trick you can install the package by your own and use it to help yourself.
The list of applications is also great when you install your linux server and you want to have the most common analytics tools installed.
This package is very useful because the default Disk Station Manager OS does not include helpful tools like nslookup.

ssh user@ipand get the root user
