Chapter 1: Installing the Server
Installation Requirements
The installation requirements of the Server include the followings:
1. Power outlet.
2. Internet connection provided by a local Internet Service Provider (ISP).
Valid user account and user password.
Network parameters include the fixed Internet IP address, the subnet mask
of your network and the default gateway. Please obtain the network
parameters from your local Internet service provider.
Make sure your Internet connection is successfully connected. Please
consult your local ISP for additional support if you encounter any problem.
3. Suitable cables for connections to LAN and Internet.
4. A domain name if a web site is planned.
5. A personal computer (equipped with 10/100BaseT Network interface card) supports

6. Before you begin to install, it is strongly recommended that you install a 3.5-inch hard
disk drive into the Server. You may consult your dealer for availability.
Installing Hard Disk Drive
If you have purchased a 3.5-inch hard disk drive, please install it before you power on
the Server. The system supports IDE or SATA interface, 3.5 inch and up to 1 TG hard
disk.
Before you install the hard disk drive, please backup the data stored in the hard disk
drive if there is any. After the installation is completed, the Server will automatically
format the hard disk drive. It takes time to format the hard disk drive. For example, it
takes about 1 hour to format a 500 GB hard disk drive.
Attention
Hard disk HDD Jumper must be set to the Master mode.
7
Please follow the procedures below to install the hard disk drive:
1. Use a screwdriver to open the cover located on the side of the Server.
2. Connect the IDE or SATA adaptor and the power source.
3. Slide the hard disk drive into the slot.
4. Tighten the two screws firmly on the side of the hard disk drive to secure the hard disk
drive.
5. Close the lid. Tighten the screw to secure the cover.
Installing the Foot Stand

2. Connecting a PC directly to the Server (for the initial setup).
Please either connect a Crossover cable from the LAN port on the PC to the
LAN port on the rear panel of the Server, or connect a RJ-45 cable
(Straight-Through
cable) together with the included crossover connector
from the PC to the Server.
(To connect the ADSL modem to the Server, wait until after you finish Setup
Wizard process.)
3. Connecting the whole network

1. ADSL modem 2. Mobile phone 3. Printer 4. Hub
5. PCs 6. Notebook & wireless LAN connectivity 7. Power outlet
9
Powering On
Press the Power button on the front panel of the Server to power on the Server. When a
power source is connected to the Server, the blue light around the power button is on.
The indicator light is off when the power is off.
Configuring Network Settings
After both power and network are connected, you may start to configure the network
settings.
You can configure the Server via the web browser on any PC. Before you begin to
configure your Server via the web browser, please contact your ISP to obtain the
following values:
The fixed Internet IP address assigned to the Server
The subnet mask of your network
The default gateway
You are allowed to configure the Server from the browser via any PC. Since the default
network settings of the Server is configured to DHCP for LAN IP assignment, please set
your PC configurations to allow your PC obtaining an IP address from the Server. Make
sure the network connection setting for your PC is configured to Obtain an IP address
automatically, and Obtain DNS server address automatically. For XP operation
system users, follow the steps below to configure:
1. Select Start > Connect To > Show all connections.
2. Right-click the Network Connection icon in the window, and select Properties.
3. Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) in the window that displays, and press Properties
and OK.
10
4. Enable Obtain an IP address automatically and Obtain DNS server address
automatically.
5. Press OK to complete the network connection setting.
Refer to the Operating System User Manual if you encounter problems.
To assign a fixed IP address to your PC, configure the PC’s IP address within the range
from 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254 and the subnet mask as 255.255.255.0. The default
gateway address is 192.168.0.1.
11
You have to assign a fixed IP address to the Server to avoid IP address confliction when
you already have a DHCP server other than this server in your LAN. Please revise the
default IP address according to your local DHCP server settings.
Setting up with Web Browser
The setup process is performed through a web browser running on a computer in your
network. After you complete the setup process, the Server can be managed from any
computer on the network via the web browser. To avoid the control of the Internet being
taken by your PC over the Server, before you start to configure the Server via your PC,
please make sure that the Server is powered on.
Logging in the Administrator’s Interface
You can log in the Server via the administrator’s interface via the web browser, and turn
on the administrator’s functions without the pre-installed hard disk drive. The purpose
for this is to make sure the system operate properly. However, it is strongly
recommended that you install a hard disk drive to achieve the best server performance.
All data can’t be saved if the hard disk drive is not installed.
Logging in http://192.168.0.1/admin/ as Server Administrator
To log in as an administrator, enter the default IP address
http://192.168.0.1/admin/ in the URL field of your web browser and press
Return (or Enter) on your keyboard. Administrator interface is designed for
administrators to configure the server management functions.
Logging in http://192.168.0.1/user/ as an individual User
To log in as a user, enter the default IP address http://192.168.0.1/user/ in the
URL field of your browser and press Return (or Enter) on your keyboard. User
Interface is designed for personal users to change personal passwords and
configure the personal email management functions.
12
Installation CD
The installation CD contains quick installation tools that are designed for system
administrators to install applications of the Server’s User management interface and
Web Mail management interface into PCs on LAN.
Insert the enclosed installation CD into the CD-ROM drive of your PC. Select a language
for the interface, and select Install user interface. Follow the on-screen installation
procedure. When the “Network changed to DHCP” message is displayed, press OK
to confirm. After the installation is completed, your PC will restart again if the operation
system of your PC is Windows 95, 98 or ME.
After the installation is completed, the system will launch the IE browser automatically,
and link to http://192.168.0.1/user/. If you intend to log in the administrator’s interface,
change the URL path to
http://192.168.0.1/admin/.
13
Also, after the installation is completed, you can click the MultiServer User UI shortcut
icon as shown below on the PC desktop to log in the User management interface, and
