1. Global address is changed.
The contracted provider allocates a global address to the router (or the unit). The global address is not static but
dynamic.
2. “*****.viewnetcam.com” and the current global address is automatically registered.
If you are enrolled in
“Viewnetcam.com”, the unique “domain name” (example: *****.viewnetcam.com) will be
allocated. The
“Viewnetcam.com” service server automatically manages the domain name of unit and the global
address of router (or unit) when a unit automatically notifies the service server of the global address.
3. Current global address is automatically registered via
“*****.viewnetcam.com”.
The
“Viewnetcam.com” service server registers the global address and the domain name of router (or unit)
in the DNS server.
4. Global address is obtained via the URL (domain name).
By entering the URL (including the domain name) on the web browser when accessing the unit via the
Internet, the DNS server identifies the registered global address of router (or unit).
5. Access using the current global address
The identified global address is used for accessing the router (or unit) to monitor images.
Note
Refer to the contracted provider whether the current IP address is static or not.
Depending on the provider, local addresses may be allocated. In this case, the DDNS service is
unavailable. Refer to the contract provider for further information.
