Network - IP Address & Default Gateway
IP Address Settings:
LinkStation needs an IP
address to communicate on a network. If
it can’t obtain an IP Address from a DHCP
Server, LinkStation will automatically use
the IP Address
192.168.11.150
, or you
may enter an IP address and subnet mask
manually.
Enabling DHCP will set your IP address
and subnet mask automatically. This is
recommended for most users.
Default Gateway Settings:
The LinkStation
does not require a default gateway address.
If DHCP is used, then a Gateway will be
set up automatically. If DHCP is not used,
configure the gateway manually. You can
get the IP address for your local Default Gateway from your Network Administrator. In a small
home network, this will usually be the IP address of your router. A Gateway is required for some
features to work properly (e.g. NTP, FTP, Remote Web-Based Configuration, etc.)
