9.Power on the px4-300r.

10.From a computer on your network, open a web browser and go to http://setup.lenovoemc.com to set up your px4-300r on your network. For best results, use a computer that is connected to the same subnet or network segment as the px4-300r.

You can access the px4-300r Management Console directly by entering the IP address or model name of your px4-300r in your computer’s web browser. To use the model name on a Mac, add

.local after the name in the browser (for example, px4-300r.local).

11.OPTIONAL: if desired, install the LenovoEMC Storage Manager and Media Aggregation software.

If you install LenovoEMC Storage Manager, its icon will appear in the System Tray (Windows) or Menu Bar (Mac). The LenovoEMC Storage Manager will automatically scan your network and connect to available Shares.

If you receive a message from your operating system's firewall alerting you of network activity, be sure to unblock communications.

Mac Users: Shares on the px4-300r will mount and appear on the Mac Desktop.

PC Users: Shares on the px4-300r will automatically be assigned a drive letter and will be available in the Network Drives section under My Computer.

Network Settings

The Network page of your px4-300r is where you make changes to set up network connectivity. The Network page displays your current network settings and enables those settings to be modified. On this page, you can identify your DNS servers and WINS servers and how your system's IP address is determined. Most system IP addresses and other network settings can normally be configured automatically.

Manually Configuring Your Network

If you are comfortable with network technology and want to configure the network, refer to Manually Configuring Network Settings.
