The LevelOne IP Network Camera 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.
Router/Gateway Setup
Your Router or Gateway must be configured to pass incoming TCP (HTTP) connections (from
Viewers) to the LevelOne IP Network Camera. The Router/Gateway use the Port Number to
determine which incoming connections are intended for the LevelOne IP Network Camera.
This feature is normally called Port Forwarding or Virtual Servers, and is illustrated below.
The Port Forwarding/Virtual Server entry tells the Router/Gateway that incoming TCP
connections on port 1024 should be passed to the LevelOne IP Network Camera. If necessary,
check your Router/Gateway's user manual to check how to perform this configuration.

The "Port" for the Port Forwarding / Virtual Server entry
above is the port number specified on the Network screen of
the LevelOne IP Network Camera.
