Hi guise,
Is there a smart way for shutdown the Nas, WITHOUT logging in its web page? in a few word, without a web browser.
I love the way Nas slowly shutdown the system and softly stop the HDDs (seems very good way to preserve the hdds life) instead of switch off the back on/off switch button that cut out the electricity and you can hear the header of hdds STOCK! down. :geek:

The telnet poweroff -f is the same of cut out power. no good.
:thinking

this is not what i mean :snicker ...
i mean to shut down the nas in your local network with one click by phones or tablets or pc... without enter in the web browser and access to the nas web server.

That could be made but that would mean anyone could shutdown your nas. To avoid that a password or pin code could solve that. But why would you wat to shut it down remote?

PS. You can use the webinterface on your phone and use shutdown button

Hi Draftmancorp,

You can do prettily like you want: just use this url:
Code: Select all
http://admin-nas:[password]@[nasip]/global/system_reset.xml?status=shutdown
So change [password] by the password set for the admin account and also replace [nasip] by the local ip of your nas.

Please to note if you do it from your smartphone, to keep somewhere a trace of the required credentials !
