1. Review or update the following:
IPv4 Network Mode By default, the network mode is set to DHCP, which means
the My Cloud Mirror device automatically gets the IP address and
other settings from your network.
Select the method of assigning the device’s unique IPv4 address:
• Static: Static IP lets you set an IP address manually. You will be
prompted for IP Address, Subnet mask, Gateway IP address,
and DNS Server. (If you don’t know this information, please
check your router settings.)
• DHCP: DHCP Client causes the My Cloud Mirror device to
obtain an IP address and associated settings automatically from
the local DHCP server.
Note: When configuring Static or DHCP, record your Subnet
mask, Gateway IP address, and DNS Server in a safe
location for future reference. This information will not be
displayed once it is entered into the My Cloud Mirror
server.
