20.1. TCP/IP
Use the TCP/IP entry to make the following settings to the IP address.
PLEASE NOTE!
If you change the IP address of the NAS server, you must log back
in to the NAS server after accepting the settings.
20.1.1. IP Address
Dynamic
Choose this option if the NAS server will automatically be assigned an IP
address from a router.
If the NAS server is not assigned an IP address, the NAS server automatically
assigns itself an IP address and a subnetwork mask. This lets you connect
your NAS server directly to your computer, for example. If the computer also
receives its IP address automatically, the computer and the NAS server will
assign themselves addresses and will then be able to communicate.
Static
Choose this option to define static IP information. To do this, enter the
following information:
IP Address
Enter the static IP address here.
IP Subnet Mask
Enter the IP subnetwork mask here.
Default Gateway
Enter the standard gateway address here.
20.1.2. DNS
DNS (Domain Name System) is used to allow a domain name to exchange
the corresponding IP addresses. If the IP address of the DNS server is known,
then enter it here.
Dynamic
Specify here if the DNS server address will be acquired automatically.
Static
Enter a static IP address for the DNS server.
