The ReadyNAS Pro Business Edition can be scheduled to power off and power back on (on certain
models) automatically (see
action and time. (The Power ON option is available on the ReadyNAS Pro Business Edition NV
through an add-on package.)
Business Edition hardware does not support this feature.
Note: When the ReadyNAS Pro Business Edition is powered off, any file transfers and
backup jobs are interrupted, and backup jobs scheduled during the power off state
do not run.

UPS Configuration

If this device is not connected to a UPS device, you may elect to enable a UPS connection to
another NAS device. Select the Enable monitoring of UPS physically attached to a remote
ReadyNAS check box and enter the IP Address in the Remote IP field. NETGEAR recommends
that you enable this feature if you have enabled the Disk Spin-Down option.
If you use this option, the ReadyNAS is shut down automatically when a battery-low condition is
detected on a UPS connected to another ReadyNAS. This is useful when a UPS is shared by
multiple ReadyNAS units, even though only one ReadyNAS is monitoring the battery status.
As an option, the ReadyNAS can remotely monitor the UPS when connected to a PC running
Network UPS Tools (NUT). For more information about NUT, see

Wake-On-LAN

You can power-on this device remotely by sending it a "WOL Magic Packet" if the WOL service is
