It is possible to configure the settings for the “Viewnetcam.com” or Dynamic DNS Update (RFC2136 compliant).In most of the DNS services offered by providers, global addresses are not static but dynamic. Therefore,access to the camera via an old global address may be invalidated after a certain period of time. Either of thefollowing services is required when accessing a camera whose global address is not static via the Internet.• DDNS service (such as “Viewnetcam.com”)It is possible to access via a registered and static domain name (example: *****.viewnetcam.com) evenafter the global address is changed. Enrollment in a domain name service is required even when using theIPv6 connection.Refer to the “Viewnetcam.com” website (http://www.viewnetcam.com/) for further information about theservice.• Static IP address service (such as a service offered by a contracted provider)In this service, global addresses are static (not changed).17.4.1 Configuration of the DDNS service (Example of the“Viewnetcam.com” service)ACABEDDBCEA. DNS serverB. InternetC. ProviderD. “Viewnetcam.com” service serverE. Remote siteGlobal address is changed.The contracted provider allocates a global address to the router (or the camera). The global address is notstatic but dynamic.“*****.viewnetcam.com” and the current global address is automatically registered.If you are enrolled in “Viewnetcam.com”, the unique “domain name” (example: *****.viewnetcam.com) willbe allocated. The “Viewnetcam.com” service server automatically manages the domain name of cameraand the global address of router (or camera) when a camera automatically notifies the service server ofthe global address.Current global address is automatically registered via “*****.viewnetcam.com”.The “Viewnetcam.com” service server registers the global address and the domain name of router (orcamera) in the DNS server.180 Operating Instructions17 Configuring the network settings [Network]
