Connecting the HP Media Vault

How you connect the HP Media Vault to your network depends on the network configuration.

Connecting the Server to the network

This example shows a broadband router (1) connecting the following:

  • HP Media Vault (2)
  • Desktop PC (3)
  • Notebook computer with a wireless adapter (4)
  • Broadband Modem (5)

The Media Vault uses a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)-enabled router to get its IP address. By default, most routers include a DHCP server. For more information, check your router documentation.

Caution
 

If you have wireless functionality on your network, be sure to enable your router’s security settings, such as Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) or Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP), to protect your network. See the documentation that came with your router.
