Default Gateway

Default Gateway is a node on a computer network that
serves as an access point to another network. A default
gateway (such as a computer and router) is used to
forward all traffic that is not addressed to a station within
the local subnet.

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
Server

A DHCP server is a server that allocates IP addresses to
hosts (network devices). In most cases, a broadband
router serves as a DHCP server in a home network.

DLNA

The DLNA authorized logo makes it easy for consumers
to recognize products that meet the new standard for
home network PCs and other digital devices, as set down
in the DLNA Guidelines for interoperability. This allows
music, video, etc. to be enjoyed from various devices over
a home network. This unit is compatible with music,
photo and video content, and is based on the DLNA
Home Networked Device Interoperability Guidelines v1.0.
This unit can be used to playback music, photos and
video stored on a DLNA-compatible server connected
through a LAN cable.

Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) is dedicated to
the simplified sharing of digital content, such as digital
music, photos and video among networked consumer
electronics (CE) and PCs. By establishing a platform of
interoperability based on open industry standards, DLNA
delivers technical design guidelines that companies can
use to develop digital home products that share content
through wired or wireless networks in the home.

DNS

DNS is an abbreviation for the Domain Name System,
which stores and associates many types of information
with domain names. Most importantly, DNS translates
domain names (computer hostnames or sitenames,
such as www.pioneerelectronics.com) to IP addresses
(such as 202.221.192.106).

Ethernet

A frame-based computer networking technology for local
area networks (LANs). This player supports 100BASE-TX
and 10BASE-T.

FLAC

FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) is an audio format
allows lossless codec. Audio is compressed in FLAC
without any loss in quality. For more details about FLAC,

IP (Internet Protocol) address

A unique number that devices use in order to identify and
communicate with each other on a network utilizing the
Internet Protocol standard, such as ‘192.168.0.1’. No
duplicate numbers are allowed in the network.

LAN

LAN is an abbreviation for the Local Area Network, which
is a computer network covering a small geographical
area, like a home, office, or group of buildings. Current
LANs are most likely to be based on switched IEEE 802.3
Ethernet technology, running at 10, 100, or 1000 Mbit/s,
or on IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi technology.

MAC (Media Access Control) address

An address attached to the port of any network device
with an IP address. The MAC address is expressed as
“00:e0:36:xx:xx:xx” and cannot be changed.

Neural Surround

Neural Surround represents the latest advancement in
surround technology and has been adopted by FM Radio
and Neural Music Direct for broadcasts of surround
recordings and live events.

Neural Surround employs psychoacoustic frequency
domain processing which allows delivery of a more
detailed sound stage with superior localization of
surround elements. System playback is scalable from
stereo up to state-of-the-art multichannel surround.

Subnet mask

The IP address is divided into the network address part
and the host address part. The subnet mask is expressed
as ‘255.255.255.0’. In most cases, the subnet mask is
automatically assigned by the DHCP server.

vTuner

vTuner is a paid online database service that allows you
to listen to radio and TV broadcasts on the Internet.
vTuner lists thousands of stations from over 100 different
countries around the globe. For more detail about
vTuner, visit the following website:
