5.7. Setting up the domain name
On the Internet, the surveillance camera can be accessed
through the public IP address of the router. As in many
cases the public IP address of the Internet access changes
constantly, it is advantageous if the surveillance camera can
be accessed via a fixed address. For this purpose, a DDNS
server (Dynamic Domain Name System) is available.
For free registration of a fixed Internet address, open the
page
http://rolleicam.net/
in your Internet Browser and
select
“Register”
in the log-on window,
First, enter a
user name
. This may only consist of small
and capital letters, numbers or a hyphen. The user name is
used for the Internet address of the surveillance camera. Enter, for instance, the user name “ipcamera“ and, after registration,
the surveillance camera can be called up via address
http://ipcamera.rolleicam.net
as soon as it is connected to the Internet.
Enter another
password
, repeat it and then click on
“Register“
.
The thus registered name must now also be entered in the surveillance camera. In the settings of the surveillance camera
open point “DDNS settings“ and select “Use DDNS“. Under
User name
and
Password
enter the same data used for registration.
Click on “Apply“, to accept the changed settings. Next, restart the surveillance camera to accept the changes. This operation
takes around another 2 minutes.
The surveillance camera is now reachable under the registered address.
