reduces network traffic.
•

load and network traffic.

devices are driven at maximum speeds.

online help, and single point of administration to configure, schedule, or monitor networkwide
backups. Desktop users can perform ad-hoc backups and browse and recover files from a
graphical online index.

DLT, and other devices. The Power Edition provides built-in support for high-speed devices and

connections, storage devices, and storage nodes by way of software enablers. Legato NetWorker
