DVRNS Settings (NETWORK
 DVRNS Tab)
NOTE: The DVRNS (DVR Name Service) allows you to 
connect to the DVR, via internet, with the dynamic IP 
address or the domain name. To make this feature easy, 
you can name your DVR (example: TomStore05) and 
connect using the DVR name instead of the IP address. 
To use the DVRNS feature, you will need to have your DVR 
registered through DVRNS with the settings matched 
between your DVR and the DVRNS server. Any changes 
to the DVRNS server might cause improper operation. 
NOTE: When Network settings have been changed, set up 
the DVRNS after saving your Network changes by selecting 
the Save button. 
 Use DVR Name Service: Checking the box when using the DVR Name Service function. You will only be able
to change the settings if Use DVR Name Service is enabled.
 DVRNS Server: Enter the IP address or domain name of the DVRNS server.

You can use the domain name instead of IP address if you set up the DNS server during Network setup.

 Use NAT: Check the box when using NAT. When using a NAT (Network Address Translation) device such as a

entered is available by selecting the Check button.

changes will not be saved. When no name is entered or a name is already registered on the DVRNS server, 
an error message displays.

the help desk information of the DVRNS server to display.
