Change DDNS Setting
	DDNS is an acronym for “Dynamic Domain Name Server”. Many
What is DDNS?	Internet connections use a "Dynamic IP address", where the Internet IP
	address is allocated dynamically whenever the Internet connection is
	established. This means that the Internet IP address can change
	periodically. An Internet user would need to know his/her Internet IP
	Address every time he/she wanted to connect to the camera remotely
	over the Internet (i.e. from outside his/her LAN). DDNS is designed to
	solve this problem, by allowing users to connect to their LANs using
	domain names, rather than IP addresses. The domain name never
	changes. For instance, “yahoo.com” is an example of a domain name
	that corresponds to an Internet IP address. Rather than accessing this
	site by typing its Internet IP address in the web address bar, users
	simply type: http://www.yahoo.com. Similarly, you can use a DDNS
	service to assign a domain name for your camera.
Enable/Disable	Enables or disables the camera’s DDNS function.
Provider	The DDNS service for the HNC290G is provided by TZO.com.
Domain Name	If you did not select a domain name for your camera in the Quick Setup
	Wizard, you can do so in this field. An example of an applicable
	domain name would be “homecamera.hawkingcam.com”. The first
	part of the domain name, shown in the example as “homecamera”, can
	be anything of your choosing. It is recommended that you choose a
	word or phrase that is easy to remember. The extension “hawkingcam”
	from the example is just one of several acceptable extensions. The
	acceptable extensions are: “hawkingcam.com”, “hawkingcam.net”,
	“myhawking.com”, “myhawkingcam.com”, and “myhawkingcam.net”.
Email Address	Please enter the email address you would like to associate with your
	DDNS account. This email address will be used to confirm your DDNS
	settings, and to send you updates and other important information.
TZO Key	Your free DDNS account will expire after 75 days from the time you
	sign-up. For a small annual fee, you can continue using the DDNS
	service. If you decide to renew your DDNS service, TZO will extend
	your term of service (account expiration date). There is no need to
	change your TZO key or account information in the camera.
DDNS Status	This display will indicate if your DDNS service has expired, if a DDNS
	update has completed, and other important information
Apply	When you finish in the “Change DDNS Settings” section, click “Apply”.
