NETGEAR ReadyNAS Duo User Guide
1-44 Configuring Your ReadyNAS Duo
v1.1, April 2008
Alerts Settings
This ReadyNAS Duo device has been preconfigured with mandatory and optional alerts for
various system device warnings and failures. The Settings tab allows you to control the settings for
the optional alerts.
NETGEAR strongly recommends that you keep all alerts enabled; however, you might choose to
disable an alert if you are aware of a problem and wish to temporarily disable it.
At the bottom of the screen in the Other Alert Settings section, there are a couple of additional
options of note. Selecting the Power-off NAS when a disk fails or no longer responds option
gracefully powers off the ReadyNAS Duo if a disk failure or a disk remove event is detected.
Selecting the Power-off NAS when disk temperature exceeds safe level gracefully powers off
the ReadyNAS Duo when the disk temperature exceeds the nominal range.
SMTP
The ReadyNAS Duo device has a built-in e-mail message transfer agent (MTA) that is set up to
send alert e-mail messages from the device. Some corporate environments, however, might have a
firewall that blocks untrusted MTAs from sending out messages.
