MyLibrary folders. If your account provides access, you can also use FTP for files in the

Obtain IP address automatically
The Obtain IP address automatically list controls whether Stora obtains a dynamic IP
address from the router. The administrator can set IP address information for Stora.
a. Yes
- Stora automatically obtains a dynamic IP address from the router using DHCP.
In most cases, use this setting.
b. No
- Stora will use the static IP address entered into the Server IP address box. This
is rarely required, but may improve performance for remote users. Selecting No
enables the Server IP address, Server netmask, and Gateway boxes.
Server IP address
- The Server IP address box sets the static IP address for Stora.
Obtain the static IP address from your ISP (Internet service provider), and use it to
replace the dynamic IP address that appears in the box by default. The Server IP
address box only appears if Obtain IP address automatically is set to No.
