Dependencies and requirements
Specific conditions must be met in order for the NAS 1500s to
operate.
Storage requirements
To protect against data loss from hard drive failure, configure
storage with fault tolerance in mind. HP recommends adhering to
RAID 5 configurations.
IP networking and setup requirements
The following are IP networking and setup requirements needed
for a NAS 1500s device:
■
Windows-based PC running Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5
(or later) on the same network segment as the NAS 1500s;
this will be used to set up and administer the NAS device.
■
Additional Ethernet connection ports to client subnets
(depending on network options ordered).
Deploying the NAS 1500s on the network
The default shipping configuration contains two 10/100/1000
integrated network interface controller (NIC) ports for client data
access. These data ports also allow access to the WebUI that
accompanies the product. Most management and administrative
procedures can be accomplished via the WebUI.
