Avoid network VPN / WAN bottlenecks in a multi user environment #663
Comments
From kenneth@hexad.dk on July 09, 2012 02:01:33 I certainly see the motivation for this, but I think this is too specific to be implemented as a standard feature. For now, you have to write a "generic module" that can then throw an exception if the desired conditions are not met. See the ConsolePasswordInput module for an example of a generic module: https://code.google.com/p/duplicati/source/browse/trunk/Duplicati/Library/Modules/Builtin/ConsolePasswordInput.cs |
Hi All, One of the features of CrashPlan I love is that it shows all wireless networks it has ever connected to, and lets you select from the list of networks, and enable to disable backups when connected to that network. I'm not sure how it would apply to wired networks, probably by DNS domain.. When on the move, I want to disable backups automatically when on a customer network or at a cafe..(usually with slow wireless) so a means of enabling/disabling networks by SSID or DNS domain would be excellent. For now, If I remember, I try to manually pause duplicati when not a home or in the office. |
This functionality isn't implemented in Duplicati ATM. As a workaround, you can use the command line option

How are you using Duplicati now? File based Backup for PST files to a NAS. Colleagues with laptop can cause a bottleneck on the VPN line, or worse... on our WAN. Because both networks have limited bandwidth. How would you like it to work? Ensure the backup can only be run when the workstation of the colleague is connected directly to the same network as the backup device.
You can suggest one network during setup of the backup profile (at least the one you are connected to at that time).
Note: To know if the IP address on the adapter is in the network/netmask range, you may need to create a table with all the possible IP addresses first and loop through the table until the IP address is found.
