DDNS
Use a public DDNS server or the DDNS server run by Digital Watchdog.
DDNS SERVER
Digital Watchdog® offers free and dependable DDNS service support. This allows you to assign the
NVR with a URL address rather than a long-complicated IP Address. This simplified the connection
process to the NVR. The DDNS service is supported by Digital Watchdog® and is free of charge for
our customers.
Input necessary information based on your network environment. And then click the [SAVE] button.
• Use DDNS: Check this box to enable the use of DDNS address for remote communication
with the NVR.
• DDNS SERVER: Select “MYDWDDNS.NET”
• TCP/IP PORT: The default is 80. You do not need to change this setting if you are using the
DDNS service provided by Digital Watchdog.
• HOSTNAME: Assign a domain name for your NVR (ex, NVROFFICE). If the same domain
name is assigned, the message still pops up when you click [CHECK]. The hostname can be
automatically assigned by clicking [AUTO GENERATE]
IP MAPPING and EXTERNAL IP
If you are using IP Mapping and Port Forwarding (e.g., using a router for Internet connection), enable
both [Use Device IP Mapping] and [Use External IP] for proper connection.
SETTING UP THE REMOTE SOFTWARE (C3 CMS)
In the menu of [Option > Setting], input DDNS Address and Port number.
The address of the DDNS SERVER is “mydwddns.net” and the Port is “80”.
VIEWING WITH A WEB BROWSER
To connect with the NVR’s Web Viewer, users can type the NVR’s MAC address + mydwddns.net.
In cases where you are using a subdomain name (HOST NAME), type the domain name +
mydwddns.net
Example:
1. If MAC address is “00:1C: 84:01:00:02” input as http://001c84010002.mydwddns.net
2. If the HOST NAME is “NVROFFICE” input as “http:// NVROFFICE.mydwddns.net”
