Watchdog® and is free of charge for our customers. To setup DDNS:
Check the box "Use DDNS" to enable registration.

DDNS serve service. You may also select dyndns if you have a paid account.
TCP/IP Port- this by default is set to port 80. Some networks have that port disabled. Contact your network administrator

Host Name- assign the System a unique name. This will be the unique identifying part of the URL associated with your
System .
ID and Password- If necessary, assign an additional username and password to access the DDNS address.
Press the 'Request' button. The system will check to make sure the hostname is available. If the name is available and
