 Port Number Setup…: Set the port number of each remote software related

program.

the function should be set to enabled.

NOTE: The DVRNS (DVR Name Service) allows you to
connect to the DVR, via internet, with the dynamic IP

connect using the DVR name instead of the IP address.

between your DVR and the DVRNS server. Any changes
to the DVRNS server might cause improper operation.

to change the settings if Use DVR Name Service is enabled.
