Dynamic DNS (DDNS)
Dynamic DNS (Domain Name Service) is a method of keeping a domain name
linked to a changing (dynamic) IP address. With most Cable and DSL
connections, you are assigned a dynamic IP address and that address is used
only for the duration of that specific connection. With the
DCS-5300W
, you can
setup your DDNS service and the
DCS-5300W
will automatically update your
DDNS server every time it receives a different IP address.

operating system is UPnP enabled, the device will be easier to configure. If you
do not want to use the UPnP functionality, it can be disabled by unselecting
Enabled
