Figure. 3-22 DDNS setup screen
Under DHCP or PPPoE configuration using IP Router, the DVR will receive an IP address
periodically, and each time, the IP address can be different. Therefore, in order for users to
access the DVR over the network, it must update its IP address to the DDNS Server.
Under IP router configuration, IP of DVR must be setup as static IP address and it must
52
4 & 8 & 16 Channel VDR Operation manual Revision 1.1
update its IP address to the DDNS server. Therefore DDNS Link on NETWORK SETUP
menu should be on. (When IP router is connected from static IP, it is no necessary to setup
DDNS link on)
By indicating the address of a DDNS Server, the DVR will update its IP address and its MAC
address periodically. Therefore, when users access the DVR over the network, the same
URL can be used. For example, if the DVR has a MAC address of “00:09:F8:12:34:56” and
the domain name of the DDNS server is “ns.udrdns.net ”, the users can access the DVR with
the URL “u123456.udrdns.net” The DDNS will know which machine to resolve the URL
because it would contain an updated IP address and MAC address list.
The factory default value of the DDNS server address from UNIMO Technology Co, Ltd. is as
follows:
DDNS address 1 : 221.139.14.109
DDNS address 2 : 211.104.85.235
DDNS connection port: 7100
If users wish to operate the DDNS server by themselves, please contact us.
3.6.2 Network Type
Choose one type from the following: STATIC, DHCP, & PPPoE.
S
tatic mode uses fixed assigned IP address in the network.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) receives an IP address from the DHCP Server,
and it may change according to the lease period.
