Installing the DCS-950G Behind a Router
Router Setup and Installation
The following steps generally apply to any router that you have on your network.
The
D-Link DI-624 is used as an example to clarify the configuration process. Your WAN Ip
Address information will be listed on following window.
Determine Your Router’s WAN IP Address
Note:
Because a dynamic WAN IP address can change from time to time depending on
your ISP, you may want to obtain a Static IP address from your ISP.
A Static IP address
is a fixed IP address that will not change over time and will be more convenient for you
to use to access your camera from a remote location. You can use DDNS to obtain an
IP address, please refer to page 34 for more information.
