•
Obtain network settings automatically... – If you have a DHCP server
on your network with IP addresses available, and you want the
Network Storage to obtain the network settings from the DHCP server,
choose this option.
•
Make network settings manually – If you do not have a DHCP server,
there are no addresses available, or you prefer to make your own
network settings, choose this option
Important
If your DHCP server assigns the IP address to the Network
Storage, and you later restart the Network Storage, the DHCP
server might assign a different IP address.
If the Network Storage’s IP address changes, your existing
network drives and printer connections will no longer work. You
must create new network drives and printer connections.
