DDNS (Dynamic DNS) Settings
Dynamic DNS is a service that maps Internet domain names to IP addresses. This service will
need to be used if you are
NOT
on a
static
(public)
IP address
.
The service we use that is tried and tested is called No-IP. (www.no-ip.com).
**For instructions on how to set up a No-IP account and hostname please refer to
"Setting up a No-IP account." on page 37 + 38.**
**If possible we suggest applying the DDNS information to your router instead of the
DVR. If your router does not support this function this menu is where you will need to
enter the information.**
