We recommend that you use DHCP address reservation to make sure that the DHCP
server always assigns the same IP address to the interfaces of the ReadyNAS. The
MAC addresses of the physical interfaces are shown on the Network page.
Note
If you enter an IP address manually, you must provide DNS server information if you
want to access your ReadyNAS system over the Internet. If the IP address changes,
your browser loses its connection to your storage system. To reconnect to your
ReadyNAS system, use ReadyCLOUD to rediscover your device. See Discover and
Set Up Your ReadyNAS Using ReadyCLOUD on page 14.
