You will need to assign an IP address to the iSCSI port(s) in this
configuration. Use the USB connection to configure the port(s).
Be aware that a DroboPro/DroboElite in this configuration
might impact the network performance. Also, the performance
of the DroboPro/DroboElite might be impacted by the network
traffic.
1. Once your DroboPro or DroboElite has connected successfully
with the USB connection (including successful discovery by
Drobo Dashboard), click Advanced Controls -> Tools -> Settings -
> iSCSI.
2. Choose a unique IP address for each iSCSI connection on each
DroboPro/DroboElite you are configuring. Make sure the
addresses are outside the range the DHCP server might assign
and also on a subnet that is reachable by your computer (where
Drobo Dashboard is running).
3. After saving your settings, safely shut down your
DroboPro/DroboElite (Advanced Controls -> Tools -> Shutdown)
and disconnect the USB cable.
4. Connect one end of the supplied Ethernet cable to the iSCSI
(Ethernet) port on the back of your DroboPro/DroboElite. Then
connect the other end to the router or switch.
5. Plug in the power cord and flip the power toggle switch on the
rear left side of DroboPro/DroboElite.
6. After the boot sequence, Drobo Dashboard should recognize
your Drobo storage device and you can begin the volume setup
and formatting process.
If you are going to connect your DroboPro or DroboElite directly
to your computer's Ethernet interface, make sure your
computer's network port is set up to use DHCP to automatically
assign an IP Address.
If your computer has only one Ethernet connection and you are
already using it to connect to a network, then you will need to
purchase and install a standard (1 Gbps) Ethernet add-on card
that is compatible with your computer. A regular network card
