N1200-320 4Gb Network Storage Router user and service guide 63
Select 7 to toggle the DHCP setting. This setting enables/disables support for Dynamic Configuration
Protocol. The default setting is enabled. When enabled, the network storage router retrieves a
dynamic IP address from a DHCP server located on the Ethernet network that the network storage
router is connected to.
If DHCP is disabled and then enabled, it is necessary to save the current configuration and reboot the
network storage router before an IP address can be requested from the DHCP server. Use the following
four steps:
a. Select X Return to previous menu.
b. Select A Save Configuration.
c. Select X Return to previous menu.
d. Select 4 Reboot.
After the network storage router finishes rebooting, the Main menu appears on the serial interface. For
Telnet, a new session needs to be opened to continue configuring the network storage router. DHCP
status can be verified from the Ethernet Configuration menu where DHCP Configuration is indicated as
Enabled, if DHCP has been successfully activated. Note that the IP address may also appear different
than the former non-DHCP IP address.
NOTE: To use the DHCP feature, a DHCP server must be operational on the Ethernet network used by the
network storage router. If the DHCP feature is used when there is no DHCP server, the standard for DHCP
requires that the network storage router wait three minutes for a response from a DHCP server before
timing out.
Your DHCP server may allow you to set up a extended lease reservation for an IP address by providing
the server with the Ethernet MAC address of the network storage router. This sets the DHCP server to
always provide the same IP address to the network storage router. This setup can be useful for remote
management of the network storage router via Telnet or Visual Manager. Because the method of setting
up a lease reservation varies depending on the DHCP server being used, HP recommends that you
contact your Network Administrator for assistance.
Select 8 to change security settings, including the user name and password. User names and
passwords should be unique and kept confidential and HP recommends using a combination of letters
and numbers when creating user names and passwords.
