System Settings 

HTTP port 

This can be any port other than the default port 

80

. If the port is changed, the user must be 

notified the change for the connections to be successful.  
 
For example, if the Administrator changes the HTTP port of an IP dome camera with an IP 
address of 192.168.0.100 from 80 to 8080, the user must type in the address 

http://192.168.0.100:8080

 instead of 

http://192.168.0.100

 

Host name 

The name identifies the camera. For example, if the alarm function is enabled and set to 
send alarm messages by Mail/FTP, the host name entered here will display in the alarm 
message. Alarms are described in section 5.7 Alarm Configuration. 

5.4. DDNS 

Dynamic Domain Name System

 (DDNS) allows a DNS name to be constantly synchronized 

with a dynamic IP address. In other words, it allows those using a dynamic IP address to be 
associated to a static domain name so others can connect to it by name.
