iPhone app on/off switch?

[Daisuke]

Hi,

I usually power down my Dell C2100 NAS while I'm at work and turn it on when I get home. I use the Dell remote management controller web interface and power it on. About powering off: I know you shouldn't, but sometimes I keep the NAS powered off for days. I would like to use an iPhone application either linked to Google or Home Assistant, to turn it on and off with a button.

Do you have any recommendations or tutorial how I should approach this?

According to https://www.dell.com/downloads/glob...ers_in_Hyperscale_Environments_06_13_2010.pdf, it's possible to SSH into the C2100 console if Serial-over-LAN (SoL) is enabled in the BIOS. You might be able to cobble something together using this.

My server has BMC, so ssh should not be possible. I see reference to SNMP, can this be configured into FreeNAS?

hello
SNMP in FreeNAS with FreeNAS poweroff ??!!
what about wake-on-lan feature of your router/gateway (pfsense, DD-WRT, Open-WRT, some ASUS router, etc.)
I use that (on pfsense gateway) and work great

I have an Internet provider hub, which acts as router also. I'm interested in a solution which allows me to power on/off the NAS with an existing IFTTT routine and WOL. I could not find any relevant tutorial and I could not find any WOL settings into Broadcom BIOS (Ctrl+S at POST).

How about an IFTTT relay device that's patched to the front-panel power button leads?

Ya, I was thinking at some Sonoff integration, do you have any suggestions of a part or tutorial I could look into?
