Is there a way to connect to ReadyNAS 214 using USB in case of NIC failure
Is there a way to connect to ReadyNAS 214 using USB in case of NIC failure Can we use any of USB ports to connect to PC or laptop to copy data
Thanks..
You can disable both IPv4 and IPv6, but I don't know if that will accomplish what you want. I do not know if the 214 uses two completely independent channels for the two ports or has some dual-port devices. If it has the latter, heat from one channel could affect the other. There is no other way to access the NAS, but there are methods of using other devices to recover data. Or, you can move the volume to a replacement OS6 NAS.
So... how can disable IPv4 or V6.. and make sure NIC1 wont come online during start.
Go to the network page in the NAS admin ui. Select the eth0, then go to the ipv4 page. Select "disable" in the pulldown. Go to the ipv6 page and disable that in the same way.
But I don't know if that will be more effective than just removing the cable.
- Disabled port in router effectively removing cable itself. All issues because I have to use this remotely..thanks for the info all
