RTSP Port Number
RTSP stands for Realtime Streaming Protocol and allows RTSP enabled video playback clients
such as VLC Media Player or MPlayer to play back the live video from the network camera. For
more information refer to section "RTSP Video Playback". We recommend using the default
value " 554".
1st, 2nd DNS Server Address
To map between an IP address and domain name, you should enter your DNS server address.
If a user sets the DNS server into the camera, users can configure the SMTP server, FTP server
and NTP server with its domain name.
NOTE: A DNS (domain name system) is for mapping between an IP address and domain name.
Every network device in the world has its IP address for connecting to the Internet. And the
device is to be connected not with its domain name but with its IP address. Ordinary users may
not be familiar with IP addresses, but know the domain names. If a user accesses a certain
network device with its domain name, the DNS server translates the domain name into an IP
address of the device and replies to the user with the result.
SMTP Server
Enter the SMTP server IP address or hostname here to send camera system information by e-
mail. You should configure this first to get camera system information by e-mail.
Use SMTP Authentication
If you need user authentication for using the SMTP server, check the box and enter your ID,
password and realm for your SMTP server. (The camera’s SMTP authentication is supporting
the "LOGIN" method.)
- Authentication method: Choose the SMTP authentication method.
- ID: Enter the user ID for SMTP authentication.
- Password: Enter the user password for SMTP authentication.
- Realm: Enter the realm for SMTP authentication.
DDNS Registration
To register the camera to the DDNS (dynamic domain name system) server, check the "enable"
box. A dynamic IP address complicates remote access since you may not know what your
current WAN IP address is when you want to access your network over the Internet. The
solution to the dynamic IP address problem comes in the form of a dynamic DNS server.
ID, Password
Enter the ID and password to find the registered camera on the DDNS server.
Hostname
Enter the hostname to find the registered camera on the DDNS server.
NOTE: Enter a full domain name (such as "mynetworkcam.dyndns.org").
DDNS Manual Update
You can update the DDNS server manually. CAUTION: Repeated use of the function may lead
to the blocking of your DDNS domain name.
Status
