Chapter 5: Configuration

This chapter explains all the configuration settings of the FSG-3. For most the default settings should work.

To configure the FSG-3, your computer needs to be connected directly to a LAN port of the FSG-3. DHCP must be enabled in the TCP/IP settings of the PC! For more information, you can read the "Before you begin" chapter. Use this PC to login to the FSG-3 configuration menu.

5.1 How to reach the configuration menu

There are several methods of reaching the configuration screen. First, as described in the "Freecom Storage Gateway Assistant" chapter, you can easily find and configure the machine using the Freecom Storage Gateway Assistant. Second, you can use a browser to go to the online configuration pages. Please make sure your PC is set to DHCP and connected to one of the three LAN ports.

You can use a standard web browser such as Firefox or Internet Explorer to go to the FSG-3 configuration pages. The FSG-3 is located on

http://192.168.1.1

Please type the above IP address into the browser address window and press enter. You can also type

//FSG_NAME

(Factory default is //FSG)

in the browser address window and you will be brought to the FSG-3 frontpage as well. Click on the configuration button and you will be asked for a username and password. The standard administrator is:

Administrator username:

admin

Administrator password:

admin

Be carefull, the username and password are CaSe SeNsAtIvE. This means "Admin" is someone else then "admin". Please change the factory default password as soon as possible!
