4. Adaptador seguro: Use the provided screws or retention mechanism to secure the adapter in place.
5. Volver a ensamblar y conectar: Replace the chassis cover, reconnect power and network cables, and power on your Synology NAS.
6. DSM Configuration: Once the NAS boots up, log into DiskStation Manager (DSM) to configure the new network interfaces.

4. Instrucciones de funcionamiento

After physical installation, the Synology E25G30-F2 network adapter requires configuration within Synology's DiskStation Manager (DSM).

Configuring 25GbE Ports in DSM:

1. Acceso a DSM: Log into your Synology NAS using a web navegador.
2. Navigate to Network Settings: Ir a Panel de control > Red > Interfaz de red.
3. Identify New Interfaces: Your newly installed 25GbE ports (e.g., LAN5, LAN6) should appear as new network interfaces.
4. Configurar ajustes de IP: Select each new interface and click Editar to configure its IP address, subnet mask, and other network settings according to your network environment. You can choose DHCP or manual configuration.
5. Aplicar configuración: Save your changes. The 25GbE connection should now be active.

Utilizing 25GbE for Performance:

• Almacenamiento de alto rendimiento: Leverage the increased bandwidth for demanding tasks such as large file transfers, virtualization, and high-resolution video editing.
• Agregar un link: If your network infrastructure supports it, configure link aggregation (LAG) to combine multiple 25GbE ports for even higher throughput and redundancy.
• SSD Cache: Consider implementing SSD cache on your Synology NAS to further accelerate random I/O performance, complementing the high-speed network connection.

5. Mantenimiento

The Synology E25G30-F2 network adapter is designed for reliability and requires minimal maintenance.

• Mantenga el firmware actualizado: Regularly update your Synology NAS's DSM to ensure the network adapter has the latest drivers and performance enhancements.
• Condiciones ambientales: Ensure your NAS operates in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating, which can affect the performance and lifespan of all internal components, including the network adapter.
• Inspección física: Periodically check the network cables for secure connections and signs of damage.

6. Solución de problemas

If you encounter issues with your Synology E25G30-F2 network adapter, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• No Link Light/Connection:
  • Verify the network cable is securely connected to both the adapter and your 25GbE switch.
  • Ensure the 25GbE switch port is active and configured correctly.
  • Try a different 25GbE cable.
• Rendimiento lento:
  • Check DSM's Resource Monitor for network utilization to identify bottlenecks.
  • Confirm that your network infrastructure (switch, cables, client devices) supports 25GbE speeds.
  • Ensure DSM and network adapter drivers are up to date.
• Adapter Not Detected in DSM:
  • Power off the NAS, reseat the E25G30-F2 adapter in its PCIe slot, and restart.
  • Verify your Synology NAS model is compatible with the E25G30-F2.
  • Ensure your DSM version meets the minimum requirement (7.1.1-42962 Update 5 or above).
