D-Link DCS-2102, DCS-2121 manual SETUP Dynamic DNS

SETUP > Dynamic DNS

If you have a DSL or Cable service provider that changes your modem IP address periodically, Dynamic DNS (Domain Name Service), a method of keeping a domain name linked to a dynamic IP address, is useful. With most Cable and DSL connections, you are assigned a dynamic IP address and that address is used only for the duration of that specific connection. With the DCS-2102/2121, you can set up your DDNS service and the DCS-2102/2121 will automatically update your DDNS server every time it receives a different IP address. Depending on the service, this update may take a few hours.

Enable DDNS: Check this checkbox to enable the DDNS function of the camera.

Server Address: Use the dropdown box to the right to select a DDNS service to use.

Host Name: Type in the Host Name of the DDNS service you wish to use.

User Name: Enter your User Name for the DDNS service you wish to use.

Password: Enter the password for the DDNS service you wish to use.

Verify Password: Retype the password for the DDNS service you wish to use.

After making any changes, click the Save Settings button to save your changes, or click the Don’t Save Settings button to discard your changes.
