IP Assignment. Select either Use values from a DHCP server or Use values below.

If you elect to assign the IP address using Use values from a DHCP server, NETGEAR advises that you set the lease time on the DHCP server/router to a value of at least a day. Otherwise, you might notice that the ReadyNAS Duo IP address changes even when ReadyNAS Duo has been powered down for only a few minutes. Most DHCP servers allow you to assign a static IP address for specified MAC addresses. If you have this option, this would be a good way to ensure your ReadyNAS Duo maintains the same IP address even in DHCP mode.

If you assign a static IP address by selecting Use values below, be aware that the browser will lose connection to the ReadyNAS Duo device after the IP address has been changed. To reconnect after assigning a static IP address, open RAIDar and click Rescan to locate the device, and then reconnect.

Speed/Duplex Mode. If you have a managed switch that works best if the devices are forced to a particular speed or duplex mode, you can select the setting you want. NETGEAR advises that you keep the setting in an Auto-negotiation mode otherwise.
