ReadyNAS OS 6.1
If you selected the option to assign an IP address automatically when you configured your
Ethernet settings, the DNS fields are populated with the DNS settings from your DHCP server
and cannot be edited.
If you selected the option to assign an IP address manually when you configured your
Ethernet settings, you must manually specify the IP addresses of the DNS servers and the
domain name to access your ReadyNAS system over the Internet.
Your network
administrator can help you determine your Domain Name Server IP address.
Configure the Ethernet Interfaces
All ReadyNAS systems provide at least one physical Ethernet interface.
On ReadyNAS systems with two or more Ethernet interfaces, the interfaces can be used
independently as individual links or combined into a bonded adapter
. Bonding can provide
redundancy or increased throughput.
For each Ethernet interface, you can configure the following settings:
• VLAN membership
• IPv4 and IPv6 settings
• DNS servers
The following table shows the default network configuration.
