When a fixed IP address is being used, the Use Dynamic IP should be set to OFF.
The IP Address, Gateway and Subnet Mask need to be set, these will generally be given
by the network manager.
DSL refers to all types of Digital Subscriber Line such as ADSL and SDSL.
The DVR Port and WEB Port can both be changed if required, default are 2000, and 80
respectively.

4-2. 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 DVR does not need a Static IP address to be available for
viewing remotely over the World Wide Web.

4-3. NTP Set

The Network Time Protocol Setting allows the DVR time to be synchronised with an
external time server.
The default is NTP OFF. When turned on the Type of service can be selected, options are
Default (time.bora.net), Domain and IP.
