Abstract:
Examples are disclosed and described to facilitate resolution of Internet Protocol address conflicts. An example method includes listening, by a first playback device having a first IP address, to a specified server port, receiving, by the first playback device from a second playback device via the specified server port, a message, wherein the message identifies a second IP address, wherein the second IP address has been assigned to the second playback device, determining, by the first playback device, whether the first IP address is the same as the second IP address, and when the first IP address is the same as the second IP address, obtaining, by the first playback device, a new IP address, wherein the new IP address is different from the first IP address and the second IP address.
