File Server - Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl First Steps

File Server

The device's integrated file server allows you to manage folders and files in a connected
USB memory (for example, a USB stick or a USB hard disk) and make them available to
all users in the local network.
ì
Connect a USB data carrier to the Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl via the USB port.
The Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl only supports hard disks with the FAT32 file system.
Note:
The USB interface of the Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl supplies 480 mA of power.
Some hard disks, however, need more power. In this case the device must have its
own mains adapter.
ì
In the USB menu, select File Server.
ì
Select the On option for the File Server.
Enter a name for the file server in the Host name field. This is shown in the network
environment of each computer in the local network and allows users to search for
their file servers.
If you assign a name other than SE555 (for example, the IP address for the
Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl), then the file server will appear in the Windows directory
network environment both under the name "SE555" and under the name you have
assigned.
ì
You can enter a Description of the file server in the next field.
Note:
When the USB memory is inserted, the first FAT32 partition is automatically ena-
bled without security settings.
