The first time you log in to the Dashboard, the Setup Wizard will load 
in you browser (

).  The Setup Wizard consists of four sections 

to be filled out that will help you to configure your Network Space 2.

a. 

General Settings:

 

✦

Machine Name (optional) - 2imum 15 characters; letters 
(case insensitive), numbers, or a hyphen.

 

✦

Create and confirm a password (from four to 20 characters). 

 

✦

While the Admin login cannot be changed during setup, you 
can change it on the Users page (

once setup is complete. If for whatever reason you do not 
complete the Setup Wizard, the default login credentials will 
be admin/admin.

b. 

Time Configuration:

 Select whether the time and date should be 

set manually or synchronized with a third party Network Time Pro-
tocol (NTP) server. The default NTP server, pool.ntp.org, links to 
a website that is open to the public. You may use the default or 
enter the address of a preferred NTP server. Press the Test but-
ton to ensure synchronization is working. You will not be able 
to modify the time and date settings if the time synchronization 
option is selected.

c. 

Disk Configuration:

 Specify how much of the total storage should 

be allotted to the Network Space 2 network and USB shares. 
While both are accessible to users on the network, when the Net-
work Space 2 is connected to a computer via USB, only USBShare 
will be accessible. You will be able to modify this value later if you 
change your mind.

If you choose to allocate space to USBShare on the Setup Wizard, 
it is necessary to format the share. After completing the Setup 
Wizard, navigate to 

Drive Information > USB Drive

 and select 

Format

 (for details, see 

).

d. 

Dashboard Language Selection

Once you’ve finished, you can proceed to the Dashboard by clicking 

Finish

 (

). Your Network Space 2 is configured and ready to 

use.  Proceed to the following sections: 

and 

.

 While USBShare can be set as high as 500 

GB, LaCie strongly recommends that you do not increase the size 
to more than 128 GB unless you reformat USBShare, using your 
operating system’s disk utility, into NTFS (Windows) or HFS+ (Mac). 
Since USBShare is formatted by default in MS-DOS (FAT32), refor-
matting to NTFS or HFS+ additionally sidesteps FAT32’s restrictions 
(4GB 2imum file size).
