If the Network Settings Are Changed After Replication Tasks Are Created
If the network settings are changed after replication tasks are created, the TeraStation cannot communicate with
the replication destination TeraStation and replication may fail. For example, disconnecting the Ethernet cable and
reconnecting it to another LAN port or changing the IP address of the replication source or destination TeraStation.
If the network settings are changed, refresh the list of TeraStations and LinkStations as follows.
1
Click Buffalo Replication in the Start menu on Windows Storage Server.

Click Refresh and refresh the detected TeraStations and LinkStations list.

When the TeraStation that the network settings were changed is displayed in the refreshed list, close the
window and click Sync.
