2  Dynamic DNS Visit Camera

Set domain name to camera, setup the parameter, then dynamic DNS can access camera. Access link: http://hostname: port number. For example, setup host computer name: youdomain.f3322.org, the camera port number is 89, the access link should be http://youdomain.3322.org:89.
