We will now take a look at ADM's settings and, more specifically, at ADM-specific options we haven't mentioned already.

General

The General tab allows you to change default HTTP/HTTPS ports, configure an automatic log-out timer, and set the style of the login page.

Regional Options

The Regional options allow you to set date and time, time zone, display format, and daylight saving time.

Hardware

The Hardware tab has many configurable options as it allows you to, for example, adjust or completely dim the brightness of the LED indicators. You can also enable or disable the buzzer for various events, disable the reset button on the back, set the disk-hibernation and sleep time, and enable or disable EuP Mode. Attention must be given to the fact that enabling EuP will disable Sleep Mode, Auto Power Resume, Wake-on-Lan, and all Power Scheduling Services.


Configure the fan-speed profile through this menu, or display your own text snippet on the server's LCD screen, or just the local temperature.

Notification

You can configure the NAS to alert you via notifications over several communication channels: email, SMS, etc.; that is, once your system encounters a significant problem or an important event occurs.

ADM Defender

ADM includes a firewall and Network Defender application to effectively protect the NAS from network attacks.

ADM Update

There is a Live Update feature you should enable if you want ADM to inform you about available updates.

Network Recycle Bin

You can enable the Network Recycle Bin option for some protection against accidental data loss, but you should be careful with this option if you frequently erase large volumes of data.

Energy Saver

All energy-saving options but the ErP on/off feature can be found here. The Wake-On-Lan (WOL) feature can't be enabled if you have EuP enabled.

Ease of Access

This menu includes all options to easily control the NAS remotely over the Web.

Factory Default

This option should be used carefully since it defaults the NAS, which will cause all stored data on its installed disks and your settings to be erased after system initialization.

Registration

You have to obtain an Asustor ID, which is free, in order to access some of the NAS server's advanced features, like Cloud Connect or its application download services.
