SwannEye IP Camera
10.5.4. Access the IP camera using a DDNS name
To access the camera from the internet outside of your Local Area Network (LAN)
you can now enter the DDNS name+port into a browser in the format:
http://yourdomainname.swanndvr.net:85
Yourdomainname
: the DNS hostname you registered with SwannDVR
85
: is the port number (in this example only). Your port number is likely to be
different and depends on what you entered in “8.4.6. Network: Network Settings”
on page 29.
If you have multiple IP cameras connected to the same router (on the same
network), you can use the DDNS name to access them all. You will however have
to use a different port number for each camera to differentiate them.
For example, you may have four cameras that can be accessed directly through:
http://yourdnsname.swanndvr.net:85
http://yourdnsname.swanndvr.net:90
http://yourdnsname.swanndvr.net:8080
http://yourdnsname.swanndvr.net:9090
Of course, the simpler way would be to access one camera and join the other
three into the one interface using “8.4.5. Multi-Device Settings” on page 27.
