2.3.6 Language
Select one of the available languages from the drop-down list to change the language of the web
interface.
2.3.7 Firmware Version
Displays the current firmware and loader version. We recommended to periodically check the
website of your vendor for updates. Also, if there is a new update available, the FW update LED
lights up green and you can push the FW update button to update the firmware.
2.3.8 Network Information
Displays the current IP address, MAC address and DHCP server status of your network drive. In
most cases, the DHCP server should be disabled in order not to interfere with your existing DHCP
server. At home, your router will be assigning the IP address or in the office, most likely a
dedicated DHCP server is already running.
When the network drive is connected directly to your computer via patch cable or if there is no
other DHCP server on the local network, the DHCP server will be enabled automatically (IP
169.254.0.1, Mask 255.255.255.0, Gateway N/A).
Note
If you are using DSL or a cable modem to connect to the Internet and your network switch or
router does not dial-up automatically, enter the PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet)
account information and click
Connect
to establish an internet connection.
2.3.9 Service Information
By default, both Samba and FTP services are enabled, allowing you to transfer files with an FTP
application or by mounting the network drive via SMB. If you only use one of these services, we
recommend disabling the other for security reasons. You can always enable it again.
2.3.10 Disk Information
Displays details about the installed hard drive and the storage capacity. If you do not see any
details, it is likely that the drive has not yet been installed or it has not yet been formatted. Make
sure the hard drive has been installed properly and then use the disk utility to format it.
