During auton'latic configuration of a f-JlusicCJAST netvvork, the
~J1CX-2000
utilizes a tecllnique caned DHCP (Dynafllic t"'lost
Confi~Juratlon
Protocol) to assign a unique
IP
addr(~ss
to each
cI~Gnt
(DHCP sen/er
feature) and define vJhere
ttl(:;~Y
are in
the
~v1usicCA.ST
netvvorl-<. Once the fllusic server and clients have a unique addr-8ss
in
the MusicC;.\ST netvJork, they can
find
each other, and rnusic strGarning and other netvJork cornrrlunication becornes possible.

The DHCP server in your PC netvJork m!ght be a dedicated DHCP server (PC running DHCP server soft'vVare). For most
custornet's, the easiest vvay to deploy a DHCP service for a pet'sonal netvvork is to use an equivaient feature of a
C01Tlrnerc~al
router product. (You may already have one for broadband Internet access.) The router is a dedicated device
t1lat sends and receives necessary inforrnation betvveen netvvorks wll!le linliting unnecessary infornlation or blockinD
unauthorized access from one nehvork to another. Standard router products also offer a DHCP server feature.
Novv perhaps you understand HIe bas!cs of CorTiputer net'vvorks. The above hvo exarTlpies are typical (and an-long the eas!est)
configurations of your tv1usicC/\ST netvvork. C)f course: you can create other configurations based on your net\:vorking needs.
In the follovving sections: vve:lI explain hovv to configure your r-AusicC!-\ST net\;vcrk based on the above tvvo exarnples.
