DYNAMIC IP CONNECTION
Before
you
start:
Please
apply
a
dynamic
IP
from
an
ISP.
With
the
dynamic
IP
address,
you
can
connect
the
network
camera
to
a
modem
or
a
router.
Connecting the network camera via a router
Steps:
1) Connect
the
network
camera
to
the
router.
2) In
the
camera,
assign
a
LAN
IP
address,
the
subnet
mask
and
the
gateway.
Refer
to
Section
2.1.2
Detecting
and Changing the IP Address for detailed LAN configuration.
3) In
the
router,
set
the
PPPoE
user
name,
password
and
confirm
the
password.
4) Set
port
mapping.
E.g.
80,
8000,
and
554
ports.
The
steps
for
port
mapping
vary
depending
on
different
routers. Please call the router manufacturer for assistance with port mapping.
NOTE:
Refer to Appendix 2 for detailed information about port mapping.
5) Apply
a
domain
name
from
a
domain
name
provider.
6) Configure
the
DDNS
settings
in
the
setting
interface
of
the
router.
7) Visit
the

Connecting the network camera via a modem
Purpose:
This
camera
supports
the
PPPoE
auto
dial-‐up
function.
The
camera
gets
a
public
IP
address
by
ADSL
dial-‐up
after
the
camera
is
connected
to
a
modem.
You
need
to
configure
the
PPPoE
parameters
of
the
network
camera.
Refer
to
Section
5.3.3
Configuring
PPPoE
Settings
for
detailed
configuration.
Figure 2-‐6
Accessing the Camera with Dynamic IP
NOTES:
The obtained IP address is dynamically assigned via PPPoE, so the IP address always changes after
rebooting
the
camera.
To
solve
the
inconvenience
of
the
dynamic
IP,
you
need
to
get
a
domain
name
from
the
DDNS
provider
(E.g.
DynDns.com).
Please
follow
the
steps
below
for
normal
domain
name
resolution
and
private
domain
name
resolution
to
solve
the
problem.
