3.12 Network Settings
Clicking on the “Advanced” button in the menu, then clicking “Network” on the left menu will
open the Network page (Figure 3-27) which displays the network settings that were set when
you initially configured the storage system.
Note: Changing the IP address or subnet mask can have several effects. If you
access the Manager using the Storage System Console or using the unit’s IP
address, access to the Manager will be disrupted and you will have to access it
again using the new IP address. Users who accessed the shared folders using
the previous IP address will be disconnected and must access them again using
the new IP address. Users who backed up their disks to the unit using the
previous IP address must remove protection for all affected disks and protect
their disks again, removing the unit from the list of backup locations and adding it
again using the new IP address.
Users who backed up their disks to the freeStor 4020 using the unit’s name do
not have to remove protection from their disks or remove the unit from the list of
backup locations. However, they must restart DiskSafe Express so that it can
retrieve the new IP address.
