5.0 Introduction to Network Port

Ever since Axus introduced RaidCare software, Axus has been working hard to

accommodate the growing demand for better and more user-friendly product. After one

year in research and development, network port was born. Now with network port, no

additional software is needed to configure RAID system. Built in web interface allows

user to configure the RAID system, simply by using a web browser. Monitoring RAID is

now easier then ever. With the email alert function, system administrators can be halfway

around the world and still be updated on the status of the RAID system.
