Choosing an Address
Choosing an IP address
Before you can set up the Music Center on your Home Network, you will have to know whether your network uses dynamic or static IP addressing.
Dynamic Addressing
When your network uses Dynamic IP addresses, it uses a range of addresses to connect to the Internet. A server or router assigns one of the addresses to each device that asks for one. This saves you from having to assign and remember the IP address for every device in your home... the server or router manages them automatically.
Static Addressing
When your network uses a Static IP address, each device always connects using the same IP address that you assigned. This is not as convenient and it requires that you know a lot more about your network (addresses, masks, gateways, etc.).
What if I don’t know?
If you're not sure what type of IP address your network uses, select Dynamic.
