7.2 DynDNS Service Overview
For DVR you can only set a static IP address. It does not support the dynamic IP. If
you have to or prefer to use dynamic IP, then it is recommended to use a DYNDNS
service.
DYNDNS is a service the maps internet domain names to IP address and works with
dynamic IP address (assigned by ISP server).
Remark: A router is needed as the interface between PC and DVR when DVR is under
internal network environment.
