5.2. Configuring the LaCie Ethernet
Disk on a Network Without a
DHCP Server
Most home networking routers are DHCP servers, meaning the
router assigns an IP address to all devices on the network to
allow devices to find each other. If your network does not have
DHCP server, you may need to manually assign your LaCie Eth-
ernet Disk an IP address and other network information.
The easiest way to modify your LaCie Ethernet Disk’s network
configuration is to use the LaCie Network Assistant. See section
5.1. Connecting Using LaCie Network Assistant
for information
on installing the network configuration software.
