Assigning IP addresses

Page 22 highlights

The MusicCAST network I Network addresses Each component on a network uses an address to identify itself to other components on the same network. The address consists of four numbers, and looks like this: 192.168.1.1 This is called an IP address. Without these addresses, the components on the network cannot transmit data to each other, and you cannot play music on your MusicCAST clients. Look at the network diagram below to see an example of network addresses. I Assigning IP addresses Before you begin to use a MusicCAST client, you must connect it to a MusicCAST server, assign it an IP address, and set the server ID of the MusicCAST server you wish to connect it to. Normally, you can use the Auto Configuration function for this connection process. MusicCAST components are equipped with an Auto Configuration function that will automatically set all parameters necessary to make a connection, however in some rare cases you may need to configure the network settings manually. See pages 25 - 34 for an explanation of how to configure a MusicCAST client to use a wireless LAN connection. See pages 25 - 34 for an explanation of how to configure a MusicCAST client to use a wired LAN connection.

Network addresses
Each component on a network uses an address to
identify itself to other components on the same
network. The address consists of four numbers, and
looks like this:
192.168.1.1
This is called an
IP address
. Without these
addresses, the components on the network cannot
transmit data to each other, and you cannot play
music on your MusicCAST clients.
Look at the network diagram below to see an
example of network addresses.
Assigning IP addresses
Before you begin to use a MusicCAST client, you
must connect it to a MusicCAST server, assign it an
IP address, and set the server ID of the MusicCAST
server you wish to connect it to. Normally, you can
