Display device accessing broadcast receiver via web browser and method of controlling therefor
First Claim
1. A method of controlling a display device accessing a broadcast receiver via a web browser, the method comprising:
- accessing a web address corresponding to an application contained in the broadcast receiver via the web browser;
receiving IP (internet protocol) address information mapped to the web address from a DNS (domain name server);
accessing the application of the broadcast receiver using the received IP address;
receiving data of the application from the accessed broadcast receiver; and
displaying content of the application on a screen of the display device based on the received data of the application,wherein the DNS stores a MAC address, a web address and an IP address of the broadcast receiver by mapping the MAC address, the web address and the IP address to each other, andwherein, if a transmission request signal of an IP address corresponding to the web address is received, the DNS receives the IP address of the broadcast receiver from a DHCP (dynamic host configuration protocol) server and transmits the IP address of the broadcast receiver to the display device.
