DDNS Registration

If you have DYNAMIC IP service from your Internet Service Provider (ISP), you will not be able to tell the current IP address of the IP camera. To solve this problem, you may register to our DDNS service.

Check if you are using dynamic addressing for the camera. If so, register your IP Video Server on our DDNS website before you configure, setup, or install the IP Camera.

Even though your IP is not dynamic, you can register your camera to the DDNS server. This allows you to remember a simple URL address instead of complicated series of numbers like http://201.23.4.76:8078.

For more details, contact our Support Center.

To register IP camera to DDNS, the camera’s ‘Serial No.’ is required. The ‘Serial No.’ can be found in section 6 ‘Setup - DDNS’ menu.

To use a public DDNS such as ‘dyndns’ or ‘no-ip’, refer to the detail information on how to use the service. (Visit the web site : http://www.dyndns.com or http://www.no-ip.com for more information).

If prompted for ID and Password, use ‘admin’ for both entries.

Please configure the IP camera at the installation site. Determine your network scenario in order to configure the IP camera with the proper TCP/IP settings. This tutorial will guide you through the process. Before configuring the IP camera, determine what settings need to be applied. Record those settings to be used to configure your IP camera for reference.

When configuring your IP camera, treat the IP camera as any other PC on your network. You will assign it several addresses and other TCP/IP properties to match your current network.

This step-by-step tutorial will teach what IP addresses and network configurations should be assigned based on the network scenario.

The default web port is 80. If port 80 is blocked by the ISP, a value between 1025 ~ 60000 should be used. If TCP port 80 is blocked, consult the ISP.

The following descriptions are several basic network scenarios. Determine which scenario describes your network. If your network does not match one of the scenarios below and you are unsure how to setup your IP camera, contact your network administrator and then call our Support Center.

Before you begin, locate any information and settings received from your Internet Service Provider (ISP). You may need to refer to these IP addresses at a later time during the configuration.
