Connecting or Disconnecting Volumes

There are two methods to connect or disconnect volumes. One uses the pre-installed Microsoft iSCSI Initiator on
Windows; the other uses Buffalo iSCSI Connection Tool.
Note: By default, the IP address of the TeraStation is automatically assigned from a DHCP server. However, in
this case, if you turn off and restart the TeraStation, the IP address may be changed and the volumes on the
TeraStation may not be accessible. To avoid changing the IP address unexpectedly, using a fixed IP address for
the TeraStation is recommended.
