The DHCP address might simply be because the system hasn't fully booted (so the network IP configuration hasn't been applied).
I think you'll need to look at the NAS on site to make more progress.

Thank you for your comment. I was onsite, and found that Readynas 422 showed "booting" (I think remained this for more than 1 day), I scarily forced to turned off as I had no option. Then the Readynas just started normally as if there was no problem!
I think you are right, the Readynas failed network initialisation with some reason, then booting the OS from the hard disk. I have checked the log but no information there, and no hard disk error, no rebuilding mirror image etc. As you said, the Readynas even did not start any hard disk at all. I am wondering what would cause this ? The office was Saturday nobody there..
It was scarily experience, but at least I learnt the booting order etc. (Network initialisation then physical hard disk booting ...) Thanks for your assistance.
