DDNS Settings
DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) is a service used to map a domain name to the dynamic
IP address of a network device. You can set up the DDNS service for remote access to the IP
camera. DDNS assigns a domain name (URL) to the IP camera, so that the user does not need to
go through the trouble of checking if the IP address assigned by DHCP Server has changed. Once
the IP is changed, the IP camera will automatically update the information to the DDNS to ensure
it is always available for remote access. For setting up the DDNS function, please refer
to
