6. Prepare Your Server
The host server must have a 10/100/1000 Mbps Network Interface Card (NIC). All system updates,
Service Packs, and drivers for the operating system and NIC must also be installed.
Microsoft Windows systems: You should install the latest version of Microsoft's iSCSI initiator software
(available at no cost) from: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads
Apple Macintosh systems: You should install one of the following third-party software iSCSI initiators:
GlobalSAN from Studio Network Solutions (available at no cost from: http://www.studionetworksolutions.
com)
Xtend SAN from ATTO Technology (not free, but available from: http://www.attotech.com)
7. Prepare the Management Port
A. The Management Port has a default IP address of 192.168.1.1. Therefore, the NIC must have a static IP
address of 192.168.1.n (e.g., 192.168.1.2). After you set up the DSN-4100/DSN-4200 storage system
via the web-based Start-Up Wizard, you can change the management port to the desired IP address.
B. Download the Java Runtime Environment 6 (JRE 6), v1.6.0.0 or later. That software is available at:
http://java.com

C. When the Start-up Wizard's Welcome screen appears, click the
"I Accept the End User License Agreement" button.
D. At the Administrator Account screen, enter a case-sensitive password for the administrator account, if
you wish to change the default value. Otherwise, you can accept the default username of admin and
the default password of admin. Click Next.
E. At the Management Port screen, enter the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway that computers
will use to access the management port. Change the host name if desired. Click Next.
F. At the Data Port screen, enter the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway for each iSCSI data
port. You can skip any or all of these items, and assign them later. Click Next or "Skip To Email
Notification".
G. At the Email Notification screen, you can optionally enable email notifications. Enter an SMTP server
IP address and port number, return email address, and the email address to which alerts should be
sent. Click Next.
H. Review your settings. Use the Back button to change any settings that need to be edited. Then click
Finish and wait for the system to restart (if necessary). You are now ready to use your DSN-4100/
DSN-4200 storage array.
