Configure the Network Settings

Starts the network configuration wizard.

Choosing Automatic will configure the NAS 4.0 unit as a DHCP client and the configuration wizard will skip to the end. Choosing Manual configuration will proceed to Step 2.

Step 2 configures the NAS 4.0 unit's static IP address and subnet mask. To choose a working static IP address, make sure you meet these criteria:

1.The subnet mask must match the rest of the network exactly.

2.The IP address must match the router's IP address exactly where the subnet mask is "255."

3.The IP address cannot end in 0 or 255.

4.The IP address must not match any other system on the network.

5.The IP address should not be within the DHCP server's client pool.
