2Make NSA Connections
3Access the NSA using NDU (NSA
Discovery Utility) or your web browser
4Set up the NSA using the wizard
5Map the NSA to a network drive from any
computer
Note: See the User’s Guide for more details and specifications on the NSA.
Requirements
You need the following before you start:
•NSA
• Included CD containing the NDU (NSA Discovery Utility) and Genie Backup Manager
• Power cord and power supply (external)
• 8-wire Ethernet cable for Gigabit Ethernet
• Up to four SATA-1 (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) compatible hard disk(s) with 15-pin SATA power
connectors
• Screwdriver to install the hard disks in the disk trays
• USB cable (optional: you only need this if you want to expand storage capacity by connecting compatible USB
drives (version 2))
• Computer with Network Interface Card (NIC) and TCP/IP installed
• Network access device such as a switch or hub.
1 Install Hard Drives
Note: Hard drives are NOT hot swappable. The NSA must be turned off before you remove or install

2Pull out the latch and grip the sides of the
tray to remove disk tray 1. Be careful not
to break the latch. Disk bay 1 is labelled on
your NSA (the top-left bay).
3Place the disk tray on a flat surface with
the panel facing up. Place a hard disk with
the screw holes facing up on the same
surface and slide it into the disk tray.
Secure it with the screws as shown.
4Push the top of the tray back into NSA disk
bay 1 until it snaps into place and push the
latch up as shown.
5Repeat steps 1 to 3 for other hard drives
that you may have.
2 Make the NSA
Connections
1Connect the Ethernet port on the rear of the NSA to a hub, switch, or
router on your network using an Ethernet cable. Use an 8-wire Ethernet
cable for Gigabit connections.

2Connect one end of the power cord to the power socket on the rear of the
NSA and the other end to the external power supply. Connect the external
power supply to a power outlet.
3Turn on the power by pressing in the power button on the front of the NSA.
Look at the front panel lights. The PWR light turns steady green. The SYS
light turns steady green after the NSA has booted successfully (it takes
about 50 seconds). The LAN light turns on if the NSA Ethernet port is
properly connected to your network. It blinks while transmitting or receiving
traffic.
Note: To turn off the NSA, press the power button in once only. The SYS
light blinks red indicating the NSA is shutting down.
3 Access the NSA
You can access the NSA in one of two ways: using the NDU (NSA Discovery
Utility) or directly entering the NSA IP address into your web browser.
3.1 Use the NDU to Discover the NSA IP Address
Use the NDU (NSA Discovery Utility) on a Windows computer if your network has a DHCP server that will
assign the NSA an IP address and/or if you have many NSAs in your network.
Note: The Genie Backup program uses the same network port as the NDU to discover the NSA. To
avoid a port conflict, do not run the Genie Backup at the same time as the NDU.
1Insert the included CD into your CD-ROM drive.
The next screen should automatically display
(autorun). Click the Setup icon.

2The NDU installation wizard begins. Follow the
installer instructions. Click Finish to complete the
installation.
3In Windows XP, click start, All Programs, ZyXEL
NSA-2400, ZyXEL NSA-2400 Discovery Utility to run the NDU.
For other Windows operating systems, procedures should be
similar. If your computer has more than one network card, then
you will first be prompted to select a network interface card.
4The NDU main screen appears listing all
hostnames, IP addresses and status of all NSAs
in your network. Click the icon under Admin to
see the main web configurator screen as shown
in Section 4 on page 6. (If you want to change the
NSA IP address, click the icon under Config. If
you want to map the NSA to a Windows network
drive, click the icon under Map (see Section 5 on
page 14). To refresh the screen, click Discover.)
3.2 Direct Access Via Web Browser
If the NSA cannot get an IP address from a DHCP
server, then the default IP address of the NSA
reverts to 192.168.1.3. Before directly entering the NSA IP address into your web browser, you must make
sure that your computer and the NSA are in the same subnet. This section shows you how to set your
Windows NT/2000/XP computer to have an IP address in the same subnet as the NSA. Refer to your User’s
Guide for detailed IP address configuration for other operating systems.
1In Windows XP, click start, Control Panel. In Windows 2000/NT, click Start, Settings, Control Panel.
2In Windows XP, click Network Connections. In Windows 2000/NT, click Network and Dial-up
Connections.

Wizard (this screen can be
accessed separately from the main
NSA screen). Skip this wizard to
have the NSA use the current or
default volume configuration.
• Choose RAID 1 if you
have two or four disks in
the NSA; half the disk
space is used for data
backup. If you have four
disks, you could choose
RAID 5 where data parity
and striping allow you to
recover data even if one
disk fails. Choose SIN-
GLE if you have just one
disk or have multiple disks
but don’t need disk
backup. Click Next to
