Using Remote Playback
Note
• When modifying network settings, after modifying it is neces-
sary to execute “Save”.
This section explains how to configure the AV controller’s
network settings manually.
If your router’s DHCP server is enabled, you don’t need to
change any of these settings, as the AV controller is set use
DHCP to configure itself automatically by default (i.e.,
DHCP is set to Enable). If, however, your router’s DHCP
server is disabled, for example, you’re using static IP
addresses, you’ll need to configure these settings yourself,
in which case, a knowledge of Ethernet networking is
essential.
What’s DHCP?
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is used by
routers, computers, the AV controller, and other devices to
automatically configure themselves on a network.
What’s DNS?
The DNS (Domain Name System) translates domain
names into IP addresses. For example, when you enter a
domain name such as www.onkyousa.com in your Web
browser, before accessing the site, your browser uses DNS
to translate this into an IP address, in this case
63.148.251.142.
