 ===Preparations===
-All basic preparations made are described in this article: [[http://wiki.netmodule.com/virtualisation/file-server | How to set up a NB2800 File Server ]]
 If you need instructions on how to set up a LXC Container on NB2800 Routers, you can refer to this page: http://wiki.netmodule.com/app-notes/virtualisation.
+The first step you should take is to give your router a static IP adress. For this, use
+<code>
+nano /etc/network/interfaces
+</code>
+and set up a static IP configuration for your primary interface. In this example, the configuration for the eth0 interface looks like this:
+<konsole>
+auto eth0
+iface eth0 inet static
+address 192.168.1.50
+netmask 255.255.255.0
+network 192.168.1.0
+broadcast 192.168.1.255
+gateway 192.168.1.105
+dns-nameservers 192.168.1.105
+</konsole>
+After that, use
+<code>
+apt-get update
+apt-get upgrade
+</code>
+to bring your system up to date.
+If your network setup doesn't include a domain you could use on your router, you can easily create one you can use to access your file server.
+For this, get access to the routers web interface and go to Services -> DNS Server. Under "Static Hosts" , click on the plus symbol to add a new domain name.
+Now enter the IP address and the domain name you want it linked to and click "Apply"
+{{ :virtualisation:local_domain_lxc2.png?nolink&600 |}}
+After this, your configuration should look like this:
+{{ :virtualisation:local_domain_lxc.png?nolink&600 |}}
+Now you can access the file server with both its IP address a its local domain name.
