[Dynamic DNS Server Settings]
DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) provides a convenient way of accessing the GV-
Video Server when using a dynamic IP. DDNS assigns a domain name to the GV-Video
Server, so that the Administrator does not need to go through the trouble of checking if the
IP address assigned by DHCP Server or ISP (in xDSL connection) has changed.
Before enabling the DDNS function, the Administrator should have applied for a Host
Name from the DDNS service provider’s website. There are 2 providers listed in the GV-
Video Server: GeoVision DDNS Server and DynDNS.org.
To enable the DDNS function:
1.
Enable:
Enable the DDNS function.
2.
Service Provider:
Select the DDNS service provider you have registered with.
3.
Host Name:
Type the host name used to link to the GV-Video Server. For the users of
GeoVision DDNS Server, it is unnecessary to fill the field because the system will
detect the host name automatically.
4.
User Name:
Type the user name used to enable the service from the DDNS.
5.
Password:
Type the password used to enable the service from the DDNS.
6. Click
Apply
.
[HTTP Port Settings]
The HTTP port enables connecting the GV-Video Server to the web. For security
integration, the Administrator can hide the server from the general HTTP port by changing
the default HTTP port of 80 to a different port number within the range of 1024 thru 65535.
[HTTPS Settings]
By enabling the Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) settings, you can access the
camera through a secure protocol. You can use self-generated Certificate and Private Key
or the ones verified by the SSL authority. Click
Browse
to locate the Certificate and
Private Key files and type the password if the .pem files are protected by password. Click
Apply. The Web interface will be restarted and you will need to log in again.
Note this function is available for

(Firmware V1.03 or later),
GV-VS11
and
GV-
VS12
(Firmware Version 1.04 or later), and
