2.4. Configuring the LaCie Net-

work Space on a Network

Without a DHCP Server

Most home networking routers are DHCP servers, meaning the router assigns an IP address to all devices on the network to allow devices to find each other. If your network does not have DHCP server, you may need to manually assign your LaCie Net- work Space an IP address and other network information.

The easiest way to modify your LaCie Network Space’s network				Fig. 2.4-A
configuration is to use the LaCie Network Assistant. See section
2.3. Connect with LaCie Network Assistant for information on
installing the network configuration software.
1.		Start LaCie Network Assistant (see section 2.3. Connect with
		LaCie Network Assistant).
2.		Windows Users: Click on the LaCie Network Assistant icon in
		the system tray and select Configuration Window... (Fig.
		2.4-A). The LaCie Network Assistant Configuration window
		opens.
		Mac users: Click on the LaCie Network Assistant icon in the
		menu bar and select Network Configuration.... The LaCie
		Network Assistant Configuration window opens.
3.		Click the Network tab.
4.		Select Manual.

	etc.) are filled when Automatic (DHCP) is selected, you do
