Preinitialization
Before beginning the installation process, verify that the
hardware installation is complete. Verify that the NAS device is
completely installed in the rack and that all cables and cords are
connected.
Note: If you need assistance with rack installation or hardware
connections, refer to the quick reference and rack installation guide
included in the shipping carton.
Collect information for configuration
Choose a host name and collect general information before
initializing the NAS device. Collect the general information
required to initialize the NAS device for both dynamic host
configuration protocols (DHCP) and non-DHCP configurations.
You will be asked for this information during configuration, as
shown in Table 2. Become familiar with this information before
attempting to configure the NAS device.
