What is DDNS?
DDNS is a service that will track your numeric IP address and allow you to attach an alphanumeric address. So for
example. Instead of using 74.125.255.116 (the Google address) you would use google.com.
Why use DDNS?
Remembering a numeric ip address can be complicated, where an alphanumeric address is easy to remember. The
other main advantage for DDNS is If you have a dynamic ip address, (where your address can change) the DDNS
service will track and update with your new IP address automatically. So no matter what your numeric ip address
is, your alphanumeric address will work.
Is DDNS free or is there a charge?
There are free services and there are services that will charge for their service. However, AV Tech provides a free
DDNS service for their DVRs. This tutorial will go over how to set up your DVR to use the AV Tech DDNS service.
