Addonics Technologies manual Network Environment, Setup NAS30U2 as a Dhcp Client

Page 2

For more detailed information on setting up the NAS30U2 adapter, refer to the User Manual located on the CD that came with the device.

The NAS 3.0 adapter is a flexible, economical and powerful unit for your Network. Follow the instructions to help you connect, setup and configure it.

Note: Any external USB storage device that you connect to the NAS 3.0 adapter is required to be pre-formatted with either NTFS, FAT32 or FAT64. When the external USB storage device is connected to the NAS 3.0 adapter , the adapter creates a configuration file and a default Public folder.

If you are connecting an external USB drive with data on it, all the data will remain on the drive but the NAS cannot see those data unless transferred to the Public folder.

Network Environment

There are 3 different setup conditions you can choose:

A.Setup NAS30U2 as a DHCP Client:

If the NAS30U2 is connected to a LAN network with an active DHCP server, it will obtain an IP address from DHCP server automatically.

B.Setup NAS30U2 as DHCP Server:

If your LAN network does not have an active DHCP server, the NAS30U2 will immediately act as DHCP server and assign itself an IP address for installation.

C.Setup NAS30U2 in Static IP environment:

You first need to configure the IP address for NAS30U2 to operate in the static IP environment. For Configuring details, please refer to “LAN Config” setup page.
