If choose dynamic distribution, do not need the extra configuration, just requires server item to assign 
DHCP Server address   
 
If choose PPPoE, just need type in correct name and password 
 

5.2.2  PPPoE 

This configuration is under the specified PPPoE IP assignment, simply input user’s name and 
password which provided by your ISP.   
Input the correct name and password, then click the Submit to finish the configuration 
(Notice: The IP address is assigned by ISP every time the camera connected to the net. Thus the IP 
address may vary from time to time. Use router to connect PPPoE or DDNS is recommended, this can 
prevent from unknown address of IPC98 .) 
 

5.2.3 HTTP Server 

This is to assign the port number through HTTP Protocol connect the web server which built in IPC98, 
port default 80. However, one can assign other port no if he is familiar with the network operation. 
 

5.2.4 DNS Server configuration 

Assign the DNS server’s IP address. You can get this from your internet service provider. 
ISP will provide at least 2 DNS address, if connection to DNS1 has failed, it will connect DNS2 
automatically. 
 

 
5.3 Server Setting 

This page includes all the settings relate to different servers. 

 
5.3.1 Mail server:

 it uses for email the photo when 

there is motion detect. Put your mail server info here. 
You can refer to email account setting like Outlook and 
other email program. Make sure if your email smtp 
server needs authorization. If so, need to enter the 
account ID and password accordingly. 
 

5.3.2 FTP server

: it uses to store the photo in remote 

FTP server, instead of IPC98, if there is motion detect. 
If you don’t have the FTP server just leave it blank.       

 
5.3.3 DDNS server   

If you are not using a fix IP address, this DDNS server 
may be useful. DDNS means dynamic domain name service. Since your IP address may be changed 
by ISP any time, you need to check every time when you want to access IPC98 remotely. Therefore 
someone provides the service to give you the domain name such that it will find out the updated IP 
address for this name automatically and you need not to know what exact IP address the IPC98 used. 
One of the DDNS service suppliers is dyndns.org, you can apply the service on line. Once you obtain 
service, input here the domain name, login name and password. Then click “Submit” to update the 
settings. 
 

5.3.4 NTP server setting 

NTP server is Net Time Protocol sever, it provides the accurate time for display and photo files info. 
Simply pull down the menu to select the right time zone and click Submit to finish the configuration 
If you find the date time in the Live View video is incorrect, it will imply that the NTP server is incorrect 
and you may try other by clicking “learn more”
