Integra RDC-7.1 Network Setup, 122, IP Address Sub-menu, Proxy Sub-menu, MAC Address Sub-menu

Network Setup

This menu appears when the ETHERNET terminal board [B] (for Net Audio) is inserted.

If using a broadband router (DHCP function), you need not perform “7. Network Setup” because the DHCP function on the RDC-7.1 is defaulted to “Enable.” When the DHCP function for the broadband router is set to “Disable,” network setup is required. In this case, you have to be knowledgeable about the network.

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) and Auto IP are the mechanisms that automatically perform network settings such as IP address on a network device such as the RDC-7.1, a PC, and a broadband router.

DNS (Domain Name System) is the mechanism that converts a domain name, such as “www.jp.onkyo.com/” used to browse a homepage, to an IP address such as “210.199.170.69” used in actual communications.

IP Address Sub-menu

a. DHCP Settings

Specify whether or not to set DHCP automatically. Enable (Default): Enables the DHCP function. Disable: Disables the DHCP function.

b. IP Address

Specify if “Disable” is selected in “a. DHCP Settings.” When an xDSL modem or a terminal adapter is connected directly to the RDC-7.1, enter the IP address provided by your ISP. The IP address to be entered must be in the following format. You cannot use the net audio function with an IP address that is not in the following format.

CLASS A: 10.0.0.0–10.255.255.255

CLASS B: 172.16.0.0–172.31.255.255

CLASS C: 192.168.0.0–192.168.255.255

c. SUBNET Mask

Specify if “Disable” is selected in “a. DHCP Settings.” When an xDSL modem or a terminal adapter is connected directly to the RDC-7.1, enter the subnet mask provided by your ISP. The subnet mask is usually “255.255.255.0.”

d. Gateway

Specify if “Disable” is selected in “a. DHCP Settings.” When an xDSL modem or a terminal adapter is connected directly to the RDC-7.1, enter the gateway address provided by your ISP.

e. DNS Server 1, DNS Server 2

Specify if “Disable” is selected in “a. DHCP Settings.” When an xDSL modem or a terminal adapter is connected directly to the RDC-7.1, enter the DNS address provided by your ISP. If connected to a gateway (router), enter the IP address of the gateway.

When you are informed of a single DNS address, enter the address into “e. 1st.” If informed of two or more, enter one into “f. 2nd.”

Proxy Sub-menu

Specify when connecting to the Internet via a proxy server.

a. Proxy Server

Some ISPs (Internet service providers) use a proxy server to connect to the Internet. In this case, follow the written instructions from the provider to set the proxy. Enable: Enables the proxy server function.

Disable (Default): Disables the proxy server function.

b. Proxy URL Input

Enter the domain name of the proxy server. When “Disable” is set for “a. Proxy Server,” selecting this item and pressing the [Enter] button will put the RDC-7.1 into the character entry mode. Press the [ ]/ [ ]/[ ]/[ ] buttons to select numerics, and then press the [Enter] button. When all numerics are entered, exit from the character entry mode.

c. Proxy Port

Enter the port No. of the proxy server. When “Disable” is set for “a. Proxy Server,” selecting this item and pressing the [Enter] button will put the RDC-7.1 into the character entry mode. Press the [ ]/[ ]/[ ]/[ ] buttons to select numerics, and then press the [Enter] button. When all numerics are entered, exit from the character entry mode.

Note:

When the settings are complete, press the [Return] button to return to the Network Setup menu. Use the [ ]/[ ] buttons to select “→Save Settings,” and then press the [ ] button to save settings. After setting, saving data will take a few seconds. While saving data, be sure not to turn off the power, otherwise the data will be lost.
