About DDNS services (IPv4/IPv6)
By using a DDNS service, it becomes possible to view camera images via the Internet
The DDNS service associates dynamic global addresses and domain names.
It is possible to configure the settings for the "Viewnetcam"* or Dynamic DNS Update (RFC2136 compliant).
In most of the DNS services offered by providers, global addresses are not static but dynamic. Therefore, access to
the camera via an old global address may be invalidated after a certain period of time. Either of the following ser-
vices is required when accessing a camera whose global address is not static via the Internet.
