The process
In this guide, we’ll discuss several different network topologies and walk you through the
process of performing NAS-to-NAS backups unique to each one. More specifically, we’ll:
9 Set up two ReadyNAS devices on a local LAN segment.
9 Create an Rsync-based backup job and verify its operation.
9 Relocate one ReadyNAS device to a remote location, residing behind a NAT firewall.
9 Configure the NAT device to accept incoming Rsync requests.
9 Create a virtual private network with two VPN endpoints.
9 Define a gateway and network policy to support Rsync backups over a VPN.
9 Discuss snapshots, a feature unique to ReadyNAS devices that allows you to freeze your
data a given point in time.
9 Tie everything together by providing an example of a typical backup scenario.
