In the Web Admin interface, navigate to [System] -
[Backup].
Click [View NAS Devices].
1
Check the [IP Address] of the LinkStation you
want to specify as a backup destination from
[Local LinkStations].
2
Enter IP address of the LinkStation you want to
specify as a backup to [Off Subnet LinkStations]
and click [Add].
Notes:
• If LinkStation # 2 (backing up) and LinkStation # 1 (with the destination folder) are on different
networks, you must create a VPN connection between the two networks before the LinkStations
will be able to see or back up to each other.
• If you are using Jumbo Frame and back up data from one LinkStation or TeraStation to another
LinkStation or TeraStation, set the Ethernet frame sizes of the LinkStations/TeraStations to the
same settings (or the closest available). If the Ethernet frame sizes are significantly different, the
backup job may fail. If you have problems with backup jobs, select the default frame size (1518
bytes).
