c:\hpnas\components\ISEE\WEBES folders.
NOTE:
This feature is only available on the 300 and 500 series ProLiant storage servers.

1 Setup overview
Your HP ProLiant storage server comes pre-installed with the Windows® Storage Server™ 2003 R2 operating system. Windows Storage Server 2003 R2 extends the Windows Storage Server 2003 operating system, providing a more efficient way to manage and control access to local and remote resources. In addition, Windows Storage Server 2003 R2 provides a scalable, security-enhanced Web platform for simplified branch server management, improved identity and access management, and more efficient storage management.
Depending on the configuration you have chosen, your storage server may contain additional software providing solutions for specific business needs. For example, your server may be optimized to be a File Print Appliance (FPA).
Planning for installation
Before you install your HP ProLiant storage server, you need to make a few up-front decisions.
Determining a network access method
Before beginning setup and startup procedures, you should decide upon an access method to connect to the storage server. The type of network access you select is determined by whether or not the network has a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, as shown in Network Access methods. The following figure shows the types of network access methods that are available and provides more information about each one.
