4.Enter the IP Address, Netmask, Default Gateway, Primary DNS Server and Secondary DNS Server (optional) as appropriate for your network.

5.Click Enter on the Commit Changes box.

If the Barracuda Backup Server is not able to connect to the Internet using the assigned address, it will switch to Smart-mode. When in Smart-mode, the Barracuda Backup Server discovers an unused IP address in its subnet and uses that address. This is intended to be a temporary measure of establishing network connectivity. Once the connectivity issue is resolved, the DHCP/Static field should be changed to DHCP or static IP address using the console administration interface.

The LAN and Internet boxes on the console administration interface will be green when the Barracuda Backup Server is determined to be online. The Barracuda box will remain red until it is linked to an account later in the installation process.
