DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) allows a DNS name to be constantly synchronised
with a dynamic IP address. It allows using a dynamic IP address to be associated with a static
domain name.
Once the setting is complete, the DDNS address will be:
http://hostname.okddns.com
For example, if you enter the host name as "NVR", then the address will be:
http://NVR.okddns.com
Select NETWORK>DDNS. The menu displays as below.
