3 Conguration SVxx54DX4I offers four distinct methods for configuring the unit for your network. Which method will work best will depend on your lev el of experience and y our specific network configuration. Using the On-Screen Display Upon initial boot, you will require an administrativ e user name and passw ord.
4 DHCP connection is present, press the Setup b utton on the rear panel of SVxx54DX4I to display the Main Menu screen, where you will be given sev eral basic setup options: If static IP addresses are assigned, you will likely need to change the Net Mask, IP Address and other details, prior to connecting via y our Web browser .
5 Using DHCP This method requires that your network implement DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), usually on a server or network access device such as a router, that dynamically allows devices to join the network without pre-configuration.

16 SVxx54DX4I will wait until the host is not using the disk, and add or remov e the files. When the host computer next looks at the drive, it will notice the changes. Y ou can read files from the vir tual disk at any time , as long as the host is not actively writing to the disk.
17 called Put files here...TXT . SVxx54DX4I is able to read most MS-DOS/Windows f ormatted disks and presents the files via the W eb interface. Howe ver , disk emulation occurs at the lowest lev el, so other disk f ormats can be used if you ha ve the tools needed to create and read the disk images.
18 Booting from USB Disk: If the host computer’ s BIOS supports USB boot devices , it is possib le to boot from the emulated CD-ROM or flopp y - allowing complete oper ating system replacement without any on-site intervention.) The first step is getting a bootable disk image onto the emulated floppy or CD-ROM.
19 ‘ Admin Functions The Admin functions allow you to access all of the f eatures you will need to perform an initial configuration of the SVxx54DX4I. Network Config DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Automatic network configuration using DHCP is: Enabled/Disab led .
