1. What is DDNS

DNS: Domain Name System

To translate the numerical IP addresses like 208.80.152.201 into domain names, which can be easily memorized by humans like “milesight.org”.

DDNS: Dynamic DNS or DynDNS

To translate changing IP addresses into a constant domain name. This is used to provide a persistent domain name for a resource that may change address on the network.DDNS provider: ddns.milesight.com, dyndns.org, freedns.afraid.org, www.no-ip.com, www.zoneedit.com

2. How to Set DDNS

So far, Milesight cameras can support 5 DDNS servers.

DDNS

Before using DDNS, you need to map HTTP Port and RTSP Port to External HTTP Port and External RTSP Port firstly. If you need to use the playback function via DDNS, you also need to map Playback Port to External Playback Port.

For more information about port forwarding, please refer to the troubleshooting:

It is recommended to enable UPnP, which will automatically map HTTP Port, RTSP Port and Playback Port to External HTTP Port, External RTSP Port and External Playback Port.

Note: If you want to use UPnP, the router needs to support UPnP function firstly.
