Network Backup server sengs
The Network Backup server table provides a summary of its settings. You can return to the Network Backup
server page if you forget the password or you want to disable it.
Only the administrator can access the Network Backup server settings.
The administrator can find the Network Backup password if it is forgotten. Go to Backup Manager >
Network Backup server and click on the magnifying glass icon.
To change the Network Backup server password, pass the cursor to the right of the asterisks and choose
the configuration icon (pencil).
For offsite backups, administrators must confirm that the ports used by Personal Cloud backup jobs are
available on the network router. The default port numbers are:
Port 22
Port 873 (encrypted backups)
To delete the Network Backup server, choose Disable. A prompt will ask if you wish to keep data or
delete all files within the share.
Backups with third-party network storage
The Backup Wizard can help you create backups to and from third-party network storage devices that
support the following protocols:
Rsync
SMB
FTP
NFS
WebDav (Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning)
Backups to network storage devices
Home or local network
When performing network backups on a local network, make certain that:
The source and destination network devices are powered on.
The destination network storage device is connected to the same network as your source device.
(Seagate network storage) The Network Backup server has been enabled and you have the password.
(Third-party network storage) The third-party network device supports one of the five network protocols
listed above.
(Third-party network storage) You have noted the third-party network device’s IP address or network
name. Network naming services are not as reliable as IP addressing.
(Third-party network storage) You have the username and password for the network device’s backup
service.
Similar to Seagate network devices, many third-party network devices have separate credentials for login
