This section explains how to configure the AV receiver’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 receiver 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 receiver, 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.
Note
• This procedure can also be performed on the AV receiver by
using its SETUP, arrows, and ENTER.
■
Mac Address
This is the AV receiver’s MAC (Media Access Control)
address. This address cannot be changed.
■
DHCP
This setting determines whether or not the AV receiver
uses DHCP to automatically configure its IP Address,
Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS Server settings.
` Enable:
DHCP enabled.
`
Disable:
DHCP disabled.
If you select “Disable”, you must configure the “IP
Address”, “Subnet Mask”, “Gateway”, and “DNS
Server” settings yourself.
■
IP Address
If you set the “DHCP” setting to “Disable”, you must
specify an IP address. Enter a static IP address provided
by your ISP.
The IP address must be within the following ranges.
` Class A:
10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255
` Class B:
172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255
` Class C:
192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255
Most routers use Class C IP addresses.
■
Subnet Mask
If you set the “DHCP” setting to “Disable”, you must
specify a subnet mask address.
Enter the subnet mask address provided by your ISP (typi-
cally: 255.255.255.0).
■
Gateway
If you set the “DHCP” setting to “Disable”, you must
specify a gateway address.
Enter the gateway address provided by your ISP.
■ DNS Server
If you set the “DHCP” setting to “Disable”, you must
specify a DNS server.
Enter the DNS server addresses provided by your ISP.
