Chapter 1: Installing the Server
Installation Requirements
The installation requirements of the Server include the followings:
1. Power outlet.
2. Internet connection provided by a local Internet Service Provider (ISP).
Valid user account and user password.
Network parameters include the fixed Internet IP address, the subnet mask
of your network and the default gateway. Please obtain the network
parameters from your local Internet service provider.
Make sure your Internet connection is successfully connected. Please
consult your local ISP for additional support if you encounter any problem.
3. Suitable cables for connections to LAN and Internet.
4. A domain name if a web site is planned.
5. A personal computer (equipped with 10/100BaseT Network interface card) supports
either
Internet Explorer 5.5
or
Netscape 5.0
and above to configure the Server.
6. Before you begin to install, it is strongly recommended that you install a 2.5-inch hard
disk drive into the Server. You may consult your dealer for availability.
Installing Hard Disk Drive
If you have purchased a 2.5-inch hard disk drive, please install it before you power on
the Server. The system supports SATA interface, 2.5 inch and up to 750 GB hard disk.
Before you install the hard disk drive, please backup the data stored in the hard disk
drive if there is any. After the installation is completed, the Server will automatically
format the hard disk drive. It takes time to format the hard disk drive. For example, it
takes about 1 hour to format a 500 GB hard disk drive.
Attention
Hard disk HDD Jumper must be set to the
Master mode
