ReadNAS Duo V1 - Won't Keep Static IP
Hello, For all the years I've used my ReadyNAS DUO (V1) I've had it configured to pull it's IP address via DHCP. I now have reason to assign it a static IP but for some reason, whenever I change the s...
Update! Problem appears to be solved. I directly edited the interfaces file to force the IP config to be static:
# iface eth0 inet dhcp
iface eth0 inet static
address 10.0.1.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 10.0.1.1Since resolv.conf was already configured correctly (10.0.1.1) I left it alone.
Rebooted and my changes were retained. Now when I go to the interfaces tab in FrontView it correctly displays "Use values below" with my chosen configuration.
At this point I'm good to go. Thanks for everyone's input.
Which web browser and version are you using?
Have you tried clearing your web browser cache, closing your web browser, then reopening Frontview to see if the setting change has stuck?
Hi.
I've tried Safari, Firefox and Chrome on OS X Mavericks. I've tried IE and Firefox on a Win 7 VM. All have the same result. I'm also seeing where on occasion I'll receive a response that the settings were successfully applied but when the tab is refreshed it reverts to showing that it is using a DHCP server.
Clearing the cache and restarting the browser has no effect.
Is there a direct way to configure the network settings outside of using Frontview? I'd be willing to open the hood and make modifications directly if possible.
