set up the email or DDNS configuration in advance.

IP address. Select the
Enable

and you will need to use the DDNS function in your router.

The camera supports UPnP (Universal Plug and Play), which is a set of computer network protocols
that enable the device-to-device interoperability. In addition, it supports port auto mapping function so
that you can access the camera if it is behind a NAT router or firewall. Select the
Enable
option to
enable this feature.
