The place to configure the DVR to automatically update a dynamic DNS service. DDNS
is not required for SwannLink P2P remote access. If you intend to access your DVR using
older IP technology you will need to configure this service.

Network Time Protocol. If the DVR connected to the Internet, it will automatically sync
time with an online server.

choice. This must be correctly configured for the DVR’s auto-email feature to work. This
section has been covered in the quick start guide.
IP Filter:
An advanced feature that allows you to exercise precise control over which devices
can communicate with the DVR.
