Server provider.

 

 

Account

Enter the login name for the DDNS account.

 

 

Password

Enter the password for the DDNS account.

 

 

Check WAN IP

Set the schedule for checking if the Internet IP address has

changed. If the IP address has changed, the DDNS Server will be

 

notified.

 

 

Options

 

UPnP

Enable UPnP support if required. If Enabled, the LevelOne IP

 

Network Camera will broadcast its availability using UPnP. UPnP

 

compatible systems such as Windows XP will then be able to detect

 

the presence of the LevelOne IP Network Camera.

 

 

Second Port

Enable this feature if required. If enabled, then HTTP connections

 

(using your Web Browser or Media Player) can use this port

 

number instead of the standard HTTP port 80.

 

• If you already have a Web Server on your LAN, then you

 

should enable the Second Port, and use this port number

 

instead of port 80.

 

• If enabled, enter the desired port number to use for connections

 

to the LevelOne IP Network Camera. The default is 1024.

 

 

Using DDNS (Dynamic DNS)

Many internet connections use a "Dynamic IP address", where the Internet IP address is allocated whenever the Internet connection is established.

This means that other Internet users don't know the IP address, so can't establish a connection. DDNS is designed to solve this problem, as follows:

You must register for the DDNS service with a DDNS service provider. The DDNS Service provider will allocate a Domain Name to you upon request.

The DDNS settings on the Network screen above must be correct.

The LevelOne IP Network Camera will then contact the DDNS server whenever it detects that the Internet IP address has changed, and inform the DDNS server of the new IP address. (The Check WAN IP Schedule determines how often the LevelOne IP Network Camera checks if the Internet IP address has changed.)

This system allows other internet users to connect to you using the Domain Name allocated by the DDNS service provider.
