Chapter 2 Configuration

Configure and administer your TeraStation using the Settings interface, accessible from a browser window. Open the interface using the procedure below or type the TeraStation’s IP address in the URL field of your browser. Within

Settings, the Easy Admin page gives you quick access to commonly used settings.

Note: Internet Explorer 9, Firefox 18, Google Chrome 24, Safari 5, and later are supported. If you have difficulty viewing Settings, check the following:

• If there are a large number of registered users, groups, or shared folders, use Firefox instead of Internet Explorer.

• If you have a proxy server enabled in the browser settings, disable the proxy server.

• With Internet Explorer, set security to Local intranet. On Windows Server 2008, higher-level security is configured by default. Set the security to a lower level temporarily.
