Configuring Your System Using the Kick-Start Utility
The Kick-Start utility is software shipped with your system. This utility is used to define the
initial network configuration of a system, which makes the system available on the network
for complete configuration using the NAS Manager. This utility is intended for customers
who have one or more systems to configure but do not want to use the default DHCP
assigned address and system name.
A NAS appliance requires configuration information before it can function on the web. You
can specify this information locally using the Kick-Start utility installed on the NAS
appliance.
You can also supply configuration information using the Remote Kick-Start utility (a
browser-based Java applet) to save the configuration information on a diskette or send it to
one or more systems across an IP network from another system on the same IP subnet.
NOTE: The system you use to create configuration files must be running Windows 2000 and
have one of the following browsers installed: Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher or
Netscape 6.0 or higher. If you use a Netscape browser, you must install the Java plug-in, which
is available at http://java.sun.com/.
NOTE: The Remote Kick-Start utility provides an integrated DHCP service that can supply a
temporary IP address to discovered NAS appliances that you add to your network before
configuring them. If your network already provides DHCP services, the Remote Kick-Start
utility detects this and does not turn on the integrated DHCP service.
