Restore a NAS share data from local snapshots
To restore your NAS share data from the local snapshots,
- Sign in to the IDrive BMR device web interface and go to the 'Restore' tab.
- Go to the 'NAS Restore' tab.
- Choose ‘NAS’ as the share type.
- Select the required share and recovery point.
- By default, user authentication is disabled. Meaning, the share will be accessible to everyone on the network. To create a secure share,
- Select 'Yes' and enable user authentication.
- Select the username from the 'Mount Username' drop-down menu.
