To address the address issue, fixed dhcp would be what I would recommend. Dynamic dns is always an option, not sure how that plays out in this particular application, but it wouldn't break anything.
Static is no longer an option generally, Fixed DHCP is functionally identical to the old school static assignment, the IP address is fixed to a particular device. This reduces administrative overhead and does some other nice things. http://net.berkeley.edu/dhcp/ BTW, if you're using NAT, you have to adhere to the NAT security policy: https://security.berkeley.edu/NAT.html On Tue, May 12, 2015 at 2:26 PM, Kevin Chan <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Beth, > > I would recommend that you set up your Apple TV via static or dynamic DHCP > so that you can find the Apple TV on the network in case you need to > troubleshoot/identify the device. > > For AirPlay mirroring via Bluetooth instructions, please check out the > "Use peer-to-peer Airplay" section at > https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204289. > > Some caveats about Airplay via Bluetooth: > * will only work with newer Apple TVs > * will only work with more recent iOS devices > * will NOT work with OS X (e.g. Apple Laptops) > > General caveat about Apple TV > * will NOT work with non-Apple devices natively (apps/procedures are > available for Windows and Linux devices) > > Another alternative that ETS has been testing is to place the Apple TV > behind an Airport Express (for NAT).
