To access this camera via the Internet, it is necessary to configure the settings for the DDNS function.
When activating the DDNS function using the camera, either of the following DDNS services is available.
• Viewnetcam
• Dynamic DNS Update (RFC2136 compliant)
Important:
• Before using the DDNS service, it is necessary to perform the port forwarding setting for the router.
• About Dynamic DNS Update (RFC2136 compliant)
Operation using DDNS services other than the "Viewnetcam" service is not guaranteed. We are not responsible
for any troubles or accidents on the circumstances where the camera is used arising out of such services.
Refer to the DDNS service providers for the selection and configuration of the DDNS services other than the
"Viewnetcam" service.
Note:
• "Viewnetcam" is a Dynamic DNS service designed for use with Panasonic Network Cameras. Refer to the
"Viewnetcam" website (http://www.viewnetcam.com/) for further information about the service.
About DDNS services (IPv4/IPv6)
By using a DDNS service, it becomes possible to view camera images via the Internet
The DDNS service associates dynamic global addresses and domain names.
It is possible to configure the settings for the "Viewnetcam"* or Dynamic DNS Update (RFC2136 compliant).
In most of the DNS services offered by providers, global addresses are not static but dynamic. Therefore, access to
the camera via an old global address may be invalidated after a certain period of time. Either of the following ser-
vices is required when accessing a camera whose global address is not static via the Internet.
• DDNS service (such as "Viewnetcam")
It is possible to access via a registered and static domain name (example: *****.viewnetcam.com) even after the
global address is changed. Enrollment in a domain name service is required even when using the IPv6 connec-
tion.
Refer to the "Viewnetcam" website (http://www.viewnetcam.com/) for further information about the service.
• Static IP address service (such as a service offered by a contracted provider)
In this service, global addresses are static (not changed).
