including IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway and Domain Name Server.
4. Click
Submit
. When the setting is complete, the Status field will indicate

Success
. Then the controller can be accessed with this fixed IP address.
2.3 Configuring DDNS Connection
DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) provides another way of accessing the controller
when using a dynamic IP. DDNS assigns a domain name to the controller, so GV-
ASManager can always access the controller by using a static domain name. The controller
supports two DDNS services: GeoVision DDNS Server and Dynamic Network Services Inc.
(DynDNS).
