Large Matrix GS6 series displays use DHCP by default, which allows automatic
display configuration by the customer's network, and eliminates manual configuration of
the player.
When the display is connected to a network that supports DHCP, a default DHCP name
similar to "DMP8.xx.xxxx" or "DMP5.xx.xxxx", where "xxxx" represents a unique identifier for
the display, is shown in the display boot sequence.
