Network Setup Dialog Box
The Network Setup dialog box enables you to change detailed parameters related to
network communication.
The system uses FTP for material and playlist data transfer, and Telnet to communicate
with the network players about errors and their status information.
Note
In normal operation, it is not necessary to change the parameters in the Network Setup
dialog box.
Consult your network administrator when changing them, because inappropriate
parameters may make the system unstable.
FTP Settings
The Number of Sessions text box specifies the number of network players that can be
simultaneously connected. Specifying a larger number increases the time required for
data transmission to each network player.
The Mode drop-down list box selects PORT or PASV. Normally, select the PORT
mode. Depending on the security management of the network, such as using a firewall
to prevent unauthorized accesses, however, selecting the PASV mode may enable file
transfer that is not possible in the PORT mode. Note that using the PASV mode
requires the corresponding routers.
FTP Time-out Settings
Specifies the duration until a time-out error occurs when attempting an FTP connection,
and until one occurs during FTP communication. If time-out errors occur when starting
connection or during data transfer, make the corresponding setting larger.
FTP Data Size Settings
The Sending Data Size text box specifies the size of a data packet sent at a time. A
larger setting may increase data transfer speed.
The Sending and Receiving Buffer Size text boxes specify the buffer size for
sending/receiving data. They must be larger than the setting of Sending Data Size.
Normally, specify a value quadruple of the Sending Data Size.
Telnet Time-out Settings
Specifies the duration until a time-out error occurs when attempting a Telnet
connection, and until one occurs during Telnet communication. If time-out errors occur
when starting connection or during data transfer, make the corresponding setting larger.
Default Settings Button
Returns all parameters in this dialog box to the default values.
