When enabled, the antivirus software scans new files as they are written over the SMB
(CIFS) protocol. It does not scan existing files or files transferred over other protocols.
Additionally for all models except ReadyNAS 100 series models, scanning ReadyNAS
OS itself is available. By default, antivirus scanning is enabled.
Note: To configure advanced settings, install the antivirus app, Anti-Virus Plus. For
more information about installing apps, see Install and Manage Apps on page 237. With
Anti-Virus Plus you can schedule scans, including scans of existing files.
To enable or disable the free antivirus software:
1. Log in to your ReadyNAS.
2. Select System > Settings > Services.
The services panel displays.
3. Click the Antivirus button.
Note: The Protect ReadyNAS OS setting is not available on ReadyNAS 100 series
models.
4. Select the Enable real-time antivirus scanning check box to enable or disable
scanning.
Note: The Protect ReadyNAS OS setting is only available when the Enable real-time
antivirus scanning setting is set.
5. Click the Apply button.
