Network - IP Address & Default Gateway
IP Address Settings: LinkStation needs an IP
address to communicate on a network. If
it can’t obtain an IP Address from a DHCP
Server, LinkStation will automatically use the
IP Address 192.168.11.150, or you may enter
an IP address and subnet mask manually.
Enabling DHCP will set your IP address
and subnet mask automatically. This is
recommended for most users.
Default Gateway Settings: The LinkStation
does not require a default gateway address.
If DHCP is used, then a Gateway will be
set up automatically. If DHCP is not used,
configure the gateway manually. You can
get the IP address for your local Default
Gateway from your Network Administrator.
In a small home network, this will usually
be the IP address of your router. A Gateway
is required for some features to work
properly (e.g. NTP, FTP, Remote Web-Based
Configuration, etc.)
