[Dynamic DNS Server Settings]
DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) provides a convenient way of accessing the
GV-VD8700 when using a dynamic IP. DDNS assigns a domain name to the GV-VD8700, so
that the Administrator does not need to go through the trouble of checking if the IP address
assigned by DHCP Server or ISP (in xDSL connection) has changed.
Before enabling the DDNS function, the Administrator should apply for a Host Name from the
DDNS service provider’s website. There are 2 providers listed in the GV-VD8700: GeoVision
GVDIP or DynDNS.org.
