DYNAMIC IP CONNECTION
Before you start:
Please apply a dynamic IP from an ISP. With the dynamic IP address, you can connect the network camera to a
modem or a router.
Connecting the network camera via a router
Steps:
1)
Connect the network camera to the router.
2)
In the camera, assign a LAN IP address, the subnet mask and the gateway. Refer to
Section 2.1.2
Detecting
and Changing the IP Address
for detailed LAN configuration.
3)
In the router, set the PPPoE user name, password and confirm the password.
4)
Set port mapping. E.g. 80, 8000, and 554 ports. The steps for port mapping vary depending on different
routers. Please call the router manufacturer for assistance with port mapping.
NOTE:
Refer to Appendix 2 for detailed information about port mapping.
5)
Apply a domain name from a domain name provider.
6)
Configure the DDNS settings in the setting interface of the router.
7)
Visit the camera via the applied domain name.
Connecting the network camera via a modem
Purpose:
This camera supports the PPPoE auto dial-‐up function. The camera gets a public IP address by ADSL dial-‐up after
the camera is connected to a modem. You need to configure the PPPoE parameters of the network camera. Refer
to
Section 5.3.3
Configuring PPPoE Settings
for detailed configuration.

Accessing the Camera with Dynamic IP
NOTES:
The obtained IP address is dynamically assigned via PPPoE, so the IP address always changes after
rebooting the camera. To solve the inconvenience of the dynamic IP, you need to get a domain name from the
DDNS provider (E.g. DynDns.com). Please follow the steps below for normal domain name resolution and private
domain name resolution to solve the problem.
