DDNS Set

DDNS is a service that maps Internet domain names to IP addresses. DDNS serves a similar purpose to DNS: DDNS allows anyone hosting a Web or FTP server to advertise a public name to prospective users. Unlike DNS that only works with static IP addresses, DDNS works with dynamic IP addresses, such as those assigned by an ISP or other DHCP server. What this means is that the NVR does not need a Static IP address to be available for viewing remotely over the World Wide Web. Please refer to Appendixes 1 on how to set up the DDNS service.
