The content sharing server uses a separate 'virtual' interface, which grabs its IP via DHCP. It will use the first DHCP address it can, this can be |
||
fairly catastrophic with a /30 (see image below) - it's possible to add an extra DHCP pool which just serves 10.0.0.137 (for example) for the content server. |

The TG582n can use a USB storage device with partitions formatted as FAT32 or EXT2/3/4. There are some restrictions - with the following disk |

content sharing sees all partitions except the NTFS one (/dev/sdb2), but doesn't correctly read the EXT4 partition (/dev/sdb4). Whether this |
|||
is because of partition size, or start sector, or EXT4-ness, is TBD. (/dev/sdb3 is EXT3). |

On a USB storage device which has (at some point) been a managed partition, the file system comprises directories |

There's a file 'Settings/manageddisk_marker' which contains a date/time string. The presence/absence/contents of this file doesn't accurately reflect the 'managed disk' status of the disk - the status has to be changed via the web UI. |
