Advanced TCP/IP Settings
DNS Configuration - DNS (Domain Name Service) provides the translation of host names to IP addresses on your network.
Obtain DNS server address via DHCP -
Automatically use the DNS server settings provided by the DHCP server. Click the View
button to see the current settings.
Use the following DNS server address - Enter
the desired DNS server by specifying the following:
Domain name - Enter the domain(s) to search for the host
name used by the video decoders. Multiple domains can be
separated by semicolons (;). The host name is always the first part of a Fully Qualified Domain Name, for example, myserver is
the host name in the Fully Qualified Domain Name myserver.mycompany.com where mycompany.com is the Domain name.
Primary and Secondary DNS servers -
Enter the IP addresses of the primary, and secondary DNS servers.
Note: This is not mandatory with
regard to secondary DNS servers.
NTP Configuration - Check the Obtain NTP server address via DHCP radio button to automatically look up and use the
NTP server settings as provided by DHCP. Click the View button to see the current settings.
Use the following NTP server address - To creat
e manual settings, check this radio button and enter the host name or IP
address of the NTP server.
Host Name Configuration - The video decoders can be accessed using a host name, instead of an IP address. The host
name is usually the same as the assigned DNS Name.
For more information, please see Security, on page
16.
Link-Local IPv4 Address - This is enabled by default and assigns the video decoders an additional IP address for use with
UPnP. The decoder can have both a Link-Local IP and a static/DHCP-supplied IP address at the same time - these will not
affect each other.
HTTP and HTTPS - The default HTTP/HTTPS port numbers (80 and 443 respectively) can be changed to any port within the
range 1024-65535. This is useful for simple security port mapping, for example.
NAT traversal (port mapping) for IPv4 - A broadband router allows devices on a private network (LAN) to share a single
connection to the Internet. This is done by forwarding network traffic from the private network to the “outside”, that is, the
Internet. Security on the private network (LAN) is increased since most broadband routers are pre-configured to stop attempts
to access the private network (LAN) from the public network/Internet.
