2.1 Hardware Installaion
2.1.1 Unpack the UMG-2000 / UMG-2200
Note:
You should inspect the box which the system was shipped in and note if it was damaged in any way before the unpacking. If the UMG-2000 / UMG-2200 itself shows damage you should file a damage claim with the carrier to who delivered it. Unpack the UMG-2000 / UMG-2200 as listed below.
2.1.2 Choosing a Setup Location
Decide on a suitable location for the UMG-2000 / UMG-2200 which should be situated in a clean, dust-free, and well ventilated area. Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic fields are generated. Place the UMG-2000 / UMG-2200 near a grounded power outlet and pay attention to the following requirements.
Leave approximately 40cm (16inche) of clearance in front of the UMG-2000 /
UMG-2200 to ensure the disk carriers can be unplugged.
Leave approximately 30cm (12 inch) of clearance in the back of the UMG-2000 /
UMG-2200 to allow for sufficient airflow and ease in servicing.
17
2.1.3 Preparing for Setup
The UMG-2000 / UMG-2200 system was shipped with desk brackets, ear brackets, and mounting screws, so it is possible to install the UMG-2000 / UMG-2200 into the mounted rack or on the desk brackets. Please read following sections in its entirety before you begin the installation and follow the steps in the order given to complete the installation process correctly.
2.1.4 Precautions
9 Review the electrical and general safety precautions. 9 Install the heaviest server components on the bottom of the rack first, and then work up
if you want to mount the UMG-2000 / UMG-2200 to a rack.
9 Use a power supply regulating uninterruptible (UPS) to protect the server from failure. 9 Allow the hot plug SATA drives and power supply units to cool before touching them. 9 Always keep the rack's front door and all panels and components on the servers
closed when not servicing to maintain proper cooling.
2.1.5 Installation Consideration
Ambient Operating Temperature
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the ambient operating temperature of the rack environment may be greater than the ambient temperature of the room. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the manufacturer’s maximum rated ambient temperature.
REDUCED AIRFLOW
Consideration should be given to the amount of airflow required for safe operation maybe not compromised for the rack mounting.
Circuit Overloading
Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the power supply circuitry and the effect that any possible overloading of circuits might have on over-current protection and power supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Ground
A reliable ground must be maintained at all times. To ensure this, the rack itself should be grounded. Particular attention should be given to power supply connections other than the direct connections to the branch circuit (i.e. the use of power strips, etc.).
18
2.1.6 The Desktop Brackets Installation
Unpack the UMG-2000 / UMG-2200.  The desk brackets have been fixed to the device before packing.  Place the system to appropriate site.

6. Web Management - Wireless
The UMG-2000 / UMG-2200 wireless suite integrates the following services: standard access point (AP), multiple layers of wireless security and client blocking.
STANDARD WIRELESS ACCESS POINT
The UMG-2000 / UMG-2200 supports three task groups in 802.11 standard working groups:
802.11b/g/n. 802.11b supports data rates up to 11 Mbps, 802.11g supports data rates of at least 20 Mbps and 802.11n supports up to 300Mbps / 2T3R.
ENCRYPTION and Security
A wireless client will connect and join the network if no encryption is enabled. However, the encryption greatly enhances the security of the connection and data transmission between the access point and the wireless client. This includes the IEEE 802.1x port-based authentication protocol, Wireless Protected Access (WPA),Wireless Protected Access –version 2 (WPA2,) Wireless Encryption Protocol (WEP). If WEP is chosen as the encrypt method, each packet is composed of the 24 bits Initialization vector and 40/104 bits encryption. Therefore, WEP encrypt length will be 64bits or 128 bits. WEP uses the RC4 stream encryption (a fresh key stream for each package). WEP, with minimal flaws, is enough to prevent most hacking. At the same time, WEP will cause often a 20-50% reduction of the wireless speed. WPA is an interim solution until the 802.11i comes out. It also uses the RC4 with the key changed to TKIP. TKIP works by generating a sequence of WEP keys based on a master key and re-keying periodically.
CLIENT BLOCKING
The wireless is the opening network system for the wireless clients and any authenticated clients can access the Wireless LAN (WLAN). However, the wireless AP can monitor the status of the connected clients and set access limitation to the clients. To temporarily block client access, the administrator can add the client MAC to the clock list. The client cannot connect to the AP unless the administrator releases the blocking.

7. Web Management - Storage
The UMG-2000 / UMG-2200 storage suite includes the following services: Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID), Network Storage Server, backup/restore, and remote data synchronizing.
RAID AND JBOD
The UMG-2000 / UMG-2200 supports RAID on storage devices. A RAID device is a logical device that has physical devices underlying it. These physical devices are disk partitions. The supported RAID levels are:
Level 0: Provides data striping, or the spreading out of blocks of each file across multiple disk drives but without redundancy. This improves performance but does not deliver fault tolerance. If one drive fails then all data in the array is lost. Level 0+1: RAID 0+1 is a mirrored configuration of two striped sets. This is a technique in which data is written to two duplicate disks simultaneously, providing data redundancy. Level 5: Provides data striping and utilizes one disk for backup information, which enables it to restore any other disk in the array.
On top of the RAID, the UMG-2000 / UMG-2200 supports Logical Volume Management (LVM2) that provides a higher-level view of the disk storage on a computer system than the traditional view of disks and partitions. This gives the system administrator much more flexibility in allocating storage to applications and users. Storage volumes created under the control of the LVM can be resized and relocated. The LVM also allows management of storage volumes in user defined groups, allowing the system administrator to deal with sensibly named volume groups.
Another choice other than RAID is the technology of “Just a Bunch Of Disks” (JBOD). The RAID system stores the same data redundantly on multiple disks that nevertheless appear to the operating system as a single disk. Although, JBOD also makes the disks appear to be a single one, it accomplishes that by combining the drives into one larger logical disk. JBOD doesn’t deliver any advantages over using separate disks independently and doesn’t provide any of the fault tolerance or performance benefits of RAID.
NETWORK STORAGE SERVER
The UMG-2000 / UMG-2200 supports Server Message Block (SMB), also known as Common Internet File System (CIFS) to share files on the private network which can be used for WINDOWS, Linux/Unix and other operating systems and Network File System (NFS) clients/servers.
