Step 3 — Use the Quick Setup Wizards to Configure the NSS: When you log
into the Configuration Interface for the first time, the basic configuration
wizard automatically starts. Run through this wizard to set up the NSS's
basic configuration. You can then choose to run the wizards to configure the
NSS to store video from your IP surveillance cameras.

Step 4 — Save the Current Configuration: After you configure the NSS, save
a copy of the configuration to a location on the NSS and to a USB key.
This step depends on whether there is a DHCP server on the network to which
you are connecting the NSS (this could be the router). The NSS ships with a
default configuration such that its network interfaces are DHCP configured. For
your computer to communicate with the NSS when no DHCP server is present,
you must manually configure the computer's network settings.
NOTE: The configuration for your computer is
only temporary. After you initially open the
configuration interface, you can configure the
static IP address for the NSS accordingly and
then restore your computer's network settings
to their previous values. For help setting the IP
configuration on the NSS, refer to the online
help available with the NSS configuration
interface.
