Planet Technology ICA-500 Manuale Utente

 

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, by allowing users to connect to your LAN 
using a domain name, rather than an IP address. 

1.  Register for the DDNS service with a supported DDNS service provider. You can 

then apply for, and be allocated, a Domain Name. 

2.  Enter and save the correct DDNS settings on the DDNS Setting screen in the 

Network setting menu. 

3.  Operation is then automatic: 

•  The ICA-500 will then automatically contact the DDNS server whenever it 

detects that the Internet IP address has changed, and inform the DDNS server 
of the new IP address. 

•  Internet users can then connect to your LAN using the Domain Name 

allocated by the DDNS service provider. 

•  Limitation: if the ICA-500 is installed with private IP address behind the NAT 

router, please find and enable the DDNS feature on the router. This can 
prevent the remote users not able to connect to the camera. 

•  Current supported DDNS service provider: 

 

Your Router or Gateway must be configured to pass incoming TCP (HTTP) 
connections (from remote viewers) to the ICA-500. The Router/Gateway uses the Port 
Number to determine which incoming connections are intended for the ICA-500. 

This feature is normally called Port Forwarding or Virtual Servers in the router. The 
Port Forwarding/Virtual Server entry tells the Router/Gateway that incoming TCP 
connections should be passed to the ICA-500. If necessary, check the user manual for 
your Router/Gateway for further details.
