The DDNS Setup window allows you to enter
your Digimerge DDNS settings in the DVR. This
step is required for remote access.
Pre-requisites:
• Create a Digimerge DDNS account
• Port forward the DVR port number to your
router (by default, port 80)
• Have your DDNS User ID, password, and
domain name ready.
For details on remote connectivity, see
"Appendix B: Setting up Remote Viewing" on
page 99.
To configure DDNS settings:
1. Beside Enable DDNS, select the checkbox
to enable DDNS.
2. Enter the following:
• Domain Name: Enter the DDNS domain
name. For example, if your DDNS address
is tomsmith.digimergeddns.net, enter
tomsmith.
• User ID: Enter the DDNS user ID (emailed
to you during the DDNS account creation
process).
• Password: Enter the DDNS password
(emailed to you during the DDNS account
creation process).
3. Under DDNS TEST, click the Start button
to test the connection. If you receive a
"succecss" message, then DDNS is
properly configured.
