Appendix B ─ DVR Name Service (DVRNS)
Overview
Using Static IP addresses in LAN/WAN networks requires high management overhead and increases the cost burden to users. Therefore, it has become essential for DVRs to support Dynamic IP addresses in ADSL/VDSL networks using DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). This reduces cost burdens and increases cost effectiveness for system users. Use the following steps to set up a system using DVRNS.
System Configuration
STEP 1 (DVR DVRNS Server): Register the unit name and IP address of the DVR during the DVRNS setup on the Remote DVR. This unit name and IP address will be registered on the DVRNS server directly.
NOTE: Refer to the applicable manual for each remote DVR for more details on DVRNS setup.
STEP 2
STEP 3 (DVRNS Server
STEP 4
