D-Link ShareCenter DNS-345 User Manual
Section 2 - Getting Started
When first powered on, during the initial boot sequence, the ShareCenter will wait to be assigned an IP address via DHCP. If it
does not receive a DHCP assigned IP address, the ShareCenter will be automatically assigned a 169.254.xxx.xxx address. It is
recommended that you use the included D-Link Storage Utility software when accessing and configuring the ShareCenter for
the first time. If you want to change the IP address before logging in or you are having trouble connecting to the ShareCenter
IP address, you can use the Storage Utility software included on the product CD to locate the device on your network and
make any necessary changes.
