9.4 SmartSync – NAS-to-NAS Data Replication
The NAS-3410s are integrated with the SmartSync function for NAS-to-NAS data replication. Two
or more NAS-3410s are required, one as the SmartSync server, others as the SmartSync clients.
The SmartSync server is like an ftp server. The SmartSync clients can either replicate their data to
the SmartSync server, or copying data from the SmartSync server, depending on the task settings.
There are three operating modes of SmartSync - "mirror" for one-to-one data replication,
"backup" for disk-based backup, "distribute" for one-to-many data distribution. The following
sections describe the usage and applications of these operating modes.
