ReadyNAS 2100 User Manual
Setting Up and Managing Your ReadyNAS 2100 2-3
v1.0, May 2009
• Speed/Duplex Mode (Only applies to 10/100 connections). If you have a managed switch
that works best if the devices are forced to a particular speed or duplex mode, you can select
the setting you want. NETGEAR advises that you keep the setting in an Auto-negotiation
mode otherwise.
• MTU. In some network environments, changing the default MTU value can fix throughput
problems. NETGEAR advises that you leave the default setting otherwise.
Teaming/Failover
In this section, you can select the desired bonding mode.
If you plan to use the Teaming/Failover option, connect both interfaces, configure the Teaming/
Failover options on the Ethernet 1 tab page, then configure the other options for Ethernet 1 and
Ethernet 2 accordingly.

Note: If you plan to reserve an IP address in your DHCP server for the ReadyNAS and
will use the Teaming/Failover option, complete the ReadyNAS bonding of the
Ethernet interfaces before updating the DHCP server address reservation table.
