====== Administration Menu ======
The ''Administration'' menu has one entry - ''Preferences''.
[{{ :dhdcs:v3:preferences-window.png?nolink |//The Preferences window shows network settings for the DHDCS//}}]
**Note**\\ In general no settings need to be changed here. The default values work for the most of the installations.
**Note**\\ Opening and writing the preferences requires elevation of user rights to administrator level.
With the ''Network interface'' option you can change the network interface card which should receive the UDP broadcasts from the DHD network:
* ''Select automatically'': Auto detection and selection is active.
* ''Select manually'': Choose the designated network adapter.
In the ''Broadcast address'' box, you can set the address range for outgoing UDP broadcasts. The possible selections here depend on your chosen network interface. The last bit must always have the value ''255'.
