The new QTS operating system dramatically improves your efficiency with multitasking, multi-window, multi-desktop, and multi-display modes enabling you to begin new tasks without waiting for the previous one. Simply and easily minimize running apps onto the task bar and switch between them. For example, browse photos in Photo Station while listening to songs played in Music Station and download files to a local computer. The multi-desktop design of QTS enables drag-and-drop shortcut icons from the Control Panel or Main Menu to the desired desktop to suit your preferences. Additionally, drag and drop a desktop icon on top of another one to group them together to create a personalized desktop for greater efficiency.

The system status displays immediately with a single click on the upper-right corner of the desktop. Open the smart dashboard to obtain a quick view of important information including system health, disk information and health, resource monitoring, storage space, scheduled tasks, device information, and firmware information. Drag and drop dashboard functions to the desktop to monitor them at any time. Moreover, in the event of a critical NAS system failure (hard disk corruption, etc.) the smart dashboard will flash and prompt a system administrator to take immediate action to recover data and to prevent the loss of important data.

Intelligent Storage Manager—Unified storage management

The QTS Storage Manager neatly presents tools and options for managing system storage with an intuitive graphical interface. The Storage Manager if the centralized place for you to view the system storage allocation, manage volumes, Storage Pools, disks and iSCSI storage, and expand the size of LUN or volume without interrupting the system.

Thin provisioning

Over-allocation enables a server to view more storage capacity than has been allocated in a storage pool. Further, the physical storage capacity is used only when files are written by the application, improving utilization rates.

Virtual Disk Drives increase storage expansion flexibility

Virtual disks provide a flexible way for IT administrators to expand storage. By using the built-in iSCSI initiator to connect an iSCSI target of the QNAP NAS, you can create a virtual disk on the local server. The QNAP NAS can act as a stack master to connect up to 8 virtual disks or stack targets, aggregating storage space from multiple NAS systems. NAS users then only need to connect to a single target to access the space from all of the network storage devices.

Every virtual disk on the local server will be seen as a single drive of arrayed disks.

Proxy Server

The Proxy Server application provides an intuitive interface to simplify proxy server settings on your NAS, enabling you to operate your own proxy server in just a few clicks. The proxy server provides cache and connection controls for Internet services. For companies that need a boost to web response time and security, this application can be leveraged to make your NAS a web proxy server to protect other devices in your local network from Internet attacks. The following are the highlighted features:

• Caching: Improves response times and saves bandwidth required for web access by caching visited web content and other web resources.

• Access Control: blocks access to certain websites or restricts access for Internet connections.

• Logging: logs visits to web sites for generating statistics to aid in network management.

• Advanced Settings: In addition to the settings available via the graphic user interface, advanced settings are available to fine tune and customize your proxy server including cache settings, and enabling access without an SSH tool.

• Anti-virus: QNAP NAS integrate SquidClamav, an anti-virus designed exclusively for proxy servers. SquidClamav performs packet inspection on traffic from the proxy server to ensure non-malicious traffic. SquidClamav also supports white listing of both file types and account names enabling users to configure allowed content types and trusted connections.

QNAP NAS offers the best Proxy Server implementation

Caching proxies keep local copies of frequently requested resources, enabling large organizations to save upstream bandwidth, increasing efficiency. A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary by retaining copies of popular documents, web pages, or other resources for requests from its clients. This is an ideal role for a NAS server since NAS have a tremendous amount of storage space in conjunction with the option of allocating memory to dedicated cache functions. Moreover, caching proxies can further benefit from typical RAID and/or SSD in a RAID configuration for very significant performance improvements.

Proxy Caching - bandwidth savings and application acceleration

In a library, a client computer often requests downloads of large-sized published journals and research papers. This consumes a lot of available bandwidth while taking a lot of time to complete the download. The Proxy Server on a QNAP NAS can solve this problem with its dedicated cache storage, saving Internet bandwidth while increasing the speed of the download.

Data Security

Secure your data with six protection mechanisms

The increasing risks of data breaches and leaks mean both business and personal data such as documents, photos, and videos need greater protection against unauthorized access. QNAP helps you to minimize risk with our six data protection mechanisms, enabling you to focus more on using your data rather than worrying about it.

1.Network environment protection

Connection management (black/white list)

Allow or deny specific IP addresses or subnets to connect to the NAS. This increases connection safety by creating lists of allowed and blocked IP addresses. For example, block an IP address from accessing the NAS for one hour, one day, or permanently based on the criteria that it has over 5 failed login attempts in the last minute. Servers of the blocked IP will be unable to connect to the NAS. Block a user who has stayed online for too long or logged in from suspicious IPs to enhance system security further.

2. Account security and system notifications

Push service

In addition to email and SMS, you can get messages sent to your mobile devices in the event of a system failure or other warning*. This keeps you updated with the latest system status so that you can take immediate action to rectify the situation and reduce the risk of data loss.

Requires installing Qmanager on your mobile device.

Two-Step Verification

The Two-Step Verification* requires users to log in to the QNAP NAS with both their passwords and a 6-digit onetime password (OTP) generated by an authenticator app. To simplify the log in process, trusted devices (e.g. home computer) can be "remembered" and only the password will be required from future log in attempts from that device.

This requires the installation of one of the following authenticator apps on your mobile device: Google Authenticator (Android, iOS, BlackBerry) or Authenticator (Windows Phone).

3.Protection by transmission encryption

Network transmission encryption

Advanced AES encryption ensures the security of shared folders. Without the key, no one can access the data in encrypted folders or files. Data transmitted over the Internet can also be encrypted to protect data security when using services such as FTP, WebDAV or in File Station. QNAP NAS provides SSL connectivity, and SSH encryption to secure data transmission and authentication. System administrators can restrict access to HTTPS (SSL over HTTP) encrypted connections. SFTP is also supported for transmission security and file access. The SSH encrypted connection provides another layer of protection for data transmission overpublic networks.

The following services provide encryption: rsync backup (SSH encryption), RTRR backup (SSL encryption), SFTP: FTP (SSH encryption) FTPS: SSL/ TLS encryption, web server (SSL encryption), share access (SSH encryption)

Virtual Private Network (VPN) VPN Proxy Server

The proxy server provides cache and connection controls for Internet services such as HTTP and FTP to enhance connection speed and security.

For detailed information about this function and applications, see: VPN + proxy server - the best solution for secured communication.

4. Data encryption

External hard drive encryption

External storage devices are convenient for data migration. QTS also supports AES-256 encryption to protect against unauthorized access of external USB/eSATA drives.

AES

Anti-Virus protection

QTS integrates the ClamAV™ antivirus toolkit to defend against the latest viruses, malware, worms, and Trojan horses with continuous free virus database updates, ensuring continuous business operation. Email notification upon task completion or virus detection is built-in. QTS also supports McAfee™ virus scanner (which is available in the QTS App Center with a free 30-day trial). You can install McAfee™ to safeguard against the latest viruses or malware with automatic software and virus database updates.

Folder encryption

Additionally, the NAS also offers folder encryption— to encrypt data in a specific folder to protect it from being accessed by unauthorized users.

Internal hard drive encryption for the entire system

QTS offers volume encryption to protect the data stored on the NAS. The system will ask for the encryption key when mounting the encrypted volume and the data is inaccessible without it. This function effectively protects data from being accessed if the entire NAS or individual drives are stolen.

AES

5. QNAP Snapshot Technology

QNAP’s whole volume/ LUN Snapshot offered in Storage Manager employs Copy-on-Write technology to record file state. If system failures occur, you can immediately revert the system to a speciﬁc state earlier in time.

6. Remote Snapshot Replica

By using the Snapshot Replica function in Backup Station, you can also backup snapshots to a remote site. With so many layers of protection, you will never worry about data loss again.

Please see next chapter for more information on QNAP Snapshot Technology and Remote Snapshot Replica.

File-level recovery

The low-impact, small-sized, and user recoverable snapshots offer more benefits of storage administration compared to traditional file copies, which are often stored as a single large data file. For instance, you can choose to recover a file in a folder or the entire folder instantly with a few clicks.

High Flexibility

Snapshots can be used with iSCSI LUNs and Volumes in QNAP NAS and expansion units to achieve full protection. On the other hand, Snapshot Replica allows you to transfer your snapshot to a remote QNAP NAS for backup.

Intuitive and user-friendly interface

The QNAP Snapshot provides tools in Storage Manager to help you find specific files to recover. You can easily view files and folders in a snapshot and browse through different snapshots displayed in chronological order. In addition, file recovery just takes a few clicks, increasing operational efficiency.

Snapshot Clone VMware

Clone a snapshot as a volume or LUN for quick file access, eliminating long restore times and reserving sizeable space for storing backups.

QNAP Snapshot also supports virtual machine snapshots on VMware® or deployment with Microsoft® Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS). Before taking snapshots, the Snapshot Agent notifies VMware® or Microsoft® VSS to stop accessing iSCSI LUNs to ensure data integrity and to reduce system overhead.

/ Microsoft® VSS integration

Rsync/RTRR integration Application Consistent Snapshots

The Rsync/RTRR functions in Backup Station automatically detect whether the system supports Snapshots. The RTRR/Rsync functions take snapshots of the volume before starting replication and then back up snapshots to a remote server. This greatly enhances data integrity.

QNAP Snapshot Agent (used for iSCSI LUN) allows connecting the QNAP NAS to remote servers (VMware vCenter™ or Windows Server®) to ensure consistent snapshots. On those remote servers, the running applications (VMware® virtual machines, Hyper-V® virtual machines, etc) will write/flush data from memory to the iSCSI LUN prior to the snapshot being taken. The application will then be consistent and include all necessary data. In case of snapshot restoration, no data will be missing.

By employing a high-performance virtual switch, the VMs are no longer confined to the limits of the transmission speed of the physical NICs when transmitting data between VMs or between VMs and the NAS.

Virtual Switch

Virtual Switches are an efficient and effective network design compared to dedicated network ports. Virtual Switches enable VMs' to share the Ethernet interfaces removing the need for a dedicated VM network. This bypasses the need to transfer data through the physical network equipment and also increases the transfer rate between VMs and the NAS. The Virtual Switch is capable of 10 GbE and port-trunking enabling a fast and secure network environment.

Support Networking modes of Virtual Switch

Bridged Networking

Virtual machine import/export

Virtual machines of various formats can be easily imported to and exported from the Virtualization Station. IT administrators can get VMs up and running quickly on a QNAP NAS or other Hypervisors.

How do snapshots work (basic)

The Internal Snapshot feature will capture an image of a running virtual machine and compare the capture to the original virtual machine image. The differences are recorded as the snapshot, and the original virtual machine image is marked as read-only. The most recent virtual machine image will contain the original virtual machine image in addition to the differential images captured thereafter. Snapshots are not inter-dependent, enabling you to restore a virtual machine to any point in time when a snapshot was captured.

VM backup and restore

With Virtualization Station, it is effortless to manage multiple virtual machines on a QNAP NAS. They can be backed up/restored centrally using an easy-to-use interface, and users can obtain scheduled tasks/ status, and manually start or stop backup tasks. The online backup tasks run in the background without interrupting VM operations and/ or powering off the system. Furthermore, you can set the schedule for backup tasks and maximum number of backup copies. When restoring, the system will automatically start up the restored VM, simplifying the whole process and reducing system downtime.

Device management

The Device Management screen provides an overview of all VMs, keeping you informed of the storage capacity, network interface, and USB devices of the NAS as well as letting you connect or remove a new device.

USB devices (USB Pass-through)

Virtualization Station supports connecting USB devices to virtual machines. Commonly used USB devices such as storage devices and card readers can be connected to virtual machines, and you can select a specific device using Virtualization Station. This can be used together with QVM Desk just like a PC. You can also connect USB card readers/ scanners to a QNAP NAS via Virtualization Station and store scanned data directly to the NAS without taking up Internet bandwidth. Further, with the advent of USB 3.0, higher data transmission can be easily achieved.

Please note that this function is only available on Windows® 8 or later.

Seven advantages of QNAP's exclusive virtualization technology

Visibility and direct access to files

Specific file formats cannot be opened directly by the QNAP NAS, but the Virtualization Station makes it possible. This saves bandwidth and access time. Administrators can install Windows®, Linux®, UNIX®, and Android™ based VMs on the QNAP NAS to run any supported application or file.

Save bandwidth & time

Downloading a large amount of data to a local PC can take a long time and use up network bandwidth. When accessing data on the QNAP NAS through virtual machines on the Virtualization Station, you can enjoy secure data transmission and save bandwidth & time as the data is not transmitted via physical network cables.

Page 31

TS-x53A QTS-Linux Combo NAS

Enhanced security

When accessing files & data on a virtual machine they are not transmitted outside of the QNAP NAS. This provides a secure environment that prevents sensitive data from being intercepted and saves bandwidth and network resources when accessing large files.

Operate VMs as Remote Desktops

Enjoy the convenience of operating Windows®, Linux®, UNIX®, and Android™ based VMs as remote desktops. A list of buttons is provided on the left side of each individual VM display, allowing users to suspend, shutdown, force shutdown, reset, bring up key combinations: Ctrl +AIt+ Del and function keys, and take snapshots of the VMs.

User-based permissions settings

The Virtualization Station administrator can create users and set granular permissions for each Virtual Machine (VM), helping to efficiently manage and allocate VM resources for users with different needs. With these permissions, users can work independently on their VM without worrying about their work being interrupted or data being lost because another user has accidentally powered-off the VM.

User-based permissions include: Console permissions: Control and View-only VM controls: Snapshot and Advanced

QNAP QVM Desk

QNAP QVM Desk supports local display for deploying virtual applications on a big screen when connected to an HDMI® monitor, keyboard, and mouse. Compared to webpage operations, it is smoother, more secure, and worry-free to do on a QNAP NAS. Even when Internet connectivity is limited, you can still access data and run virtual machines on a QNAP NAS.

Qsync Central Station 2.0 - Centrally manage and secure your files and devices

Coupled with Qsync Central Station and Qsync Client, QNAP NAS provides a economical ﬁle sync solution that resembles Dropbox syncing and backup service. This allows businesses and organizations to ensure that team members always have the most up-todate ﬁles for greater working efﬁciency.

Synchronization for better and easier file management

Qsync Central Station 2.0 supports file synchronization between multiple devices, and you can utilize a smart phone, tablet, computer or webpage to browse through synchronized files. When your computer is offline, you can edit the files offline or view the files on the local Qsync folder, and as soon as the network resumes, online, Qsynch will resume the data synchronization. You can also choose to keep the files stored on your QNAP NAS un-deleted to save the storage space of your local device.

Seamless file sharing for better work collaboration

Besides the Qsync folder, now you can synchronize shared folders on a QNAP NAS to the Qsync client on your computer, enabling synchronization among multiple shared folders on the NAS and elevating the level of file sync and sharing efficiency to a higher level.

Enhance management efficiency by monitoring equipment settings

The administrator can create default settings on Qsync Central Station 2.0 and also apply them to Qsync clients, which helps to not only save time and effort setting up individual clients, but also allows administrators to monitor user settings, thereby strengthening enterprise-wide IT management and file filtering control and avoiding the risk of deleting files on a QNAP NAS by mistake due to synchronization. Also, by using permission settings, administrators can flexibly adjust individual user’s equipment settings, where it not only retains the above advantages, but further enhances the flexibility and convenience of the centralized management approach.

Remotely delete shared folders to prevent data leaks

In the event where a computer/device is stolen or lost, the Qsync folder can be remotely erased* to ensure that sensitive or confidential data is not accessed by unauthorized users or leaked. Once the computer/ device is recovered, Qsync can easily restore the data that was deleted, ensuring the perfect balance between security and convenience.

The data will still be retained on the QNAP NAS

Advanced system database and algorithms for enhancing system performance

On QTS 4.2 a brand-new database system and refined algorithms are incorporated into Qsync Central Station 2.0 to greatly improve the overall system performance and reduce the burden on the NAS and computers/devices using it. When accessed by a single user, Qsync Central Station 2.0’s upload efficiency nearly doubles. With 20 users, the upload efficiency further increases by nearly 20 times. All the improvement can maximize collaborative efficiency while minimizing the wait time for the team.
