Setup Overview
Setup with your ix2 Network Storage is easy. Remove it from the box, connect it to your network switch or
hub, and then power it up. Launch a web browser and enter the setup URL identified in the Quick Start
Guide. LenovoEMC Setup launches and displays a message that your ix2 is online and ready to use.
You then can install client software that includes:
● LenovoEMC Storage Manager
● Twonky Media Server for media aggregation
LenovoEMC Storage Manager is a management tool that helps you discover your ix2 on your network to
simplify access to content on your ix2 from your computer. It also allows you to add your computer as a
trusted device to a LenovoEMC Personal Cloud. Refer to LenovoEMC Storage Manager online help for
additional information. Twonky Media Server consolidates all media files on devices on your network and
presents them in a unified view.
From LenovoEMC Setup, you can optionally create a Personal Cloud or begin using your ix2 by clicking
Manage My Device.
By default, the ix2 will attempt to acquire an IP address from DHCP, If there is not a DHCP
server available on the network, the ix2 will use an IP address in the self-assigned APIPA range
