LAN
Network Mode—Select the method the StorCenter Pro server will use to obtain an IP
address—DHCP Client or Static.
DHCP Client—Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The StorCenter Pro server will obtain
its LAN IP settings from the DHCP server on the local network. By default, the StorCenter Pro
server is configured to use DHCP.
IP Address—Displays the StorCenter Pro server's IP address. If no DHCP server is found the
StorCenter Pro server will automatically default to an IP address in the 169.254.x.x range.
Subnet Mask—Displays the StorCenter Pro server's subnet mask. If no DHCP server is found
the StorCenter Pro server will automatically default to a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0.
Static—If your network does not have a DHCP server, you must set a static IP address for
your StorCenter Pro server to function properly
IP Address—Enter an IP address for your StorCenter Pro server. The IP address of each
device in the local area network must be within the same IP address range and subnet mask.
For a small subnet with less than 253 IP addresses assigned (e.g. Class C private IP), each
device in the LAN (Local Area Network) needs to have a unique IP Address in the format of
169.254.x.x to connect to other devices within the same network.
