Managing Network Settings
Configuring Network Settings
By default, the cloud storage gateway is automatically assigned an IP address and DNS settings by the DHCP server. If your network uses static IP addresses instead of DHCP, you must configure the cloud storage gateway's network settings.
Note: If a DHCP server is not available, then, after one minute, the cloud storage gateway uses IP address 192.168.192.5.
Note: You can apply a custom DNS configuration to each Cloud Storage Gateway according to its DHCP class identifier.

1 In the Configuration tab, select System > Network.
