DDNS Configuration

DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) Configuration is the process of assigning a static hostname to a device with a changing external IP address, ensuring seamless remote access without the need for manual IP updates. This ensures uninterrupted monitoring and accessibility of surveillance systems from anywhere.

Steps for DDNS Configuration

  1. In DVR/NVR/IP Camera, the DDNS Settings can be found in the Network section. You will need to provide the domain name, server address, username, and password.
  2. To get these details, go to the Smart Surveillance Portal configuration page and select the DDNS option.
  3. On the DDNS page, you will find a common username and password mentioned at the top of the page, along with a list of devices that have already been added.
  4. From the list of devices, locate the corresponding DDNS name for your device. Copy this name and paste it into the Domain Name field in the DVR/NVR DDNS settings.
  5. For the Server Address, use dns.fynkrag.com. Use the common username and password as mentioned on the DDNS page.
  6. Save the settings and check the Smart Surveillance Portal DDNS page to ensure the external IP is displayed automatically. If the external IP is not displayed, double-check the entered details for accuracy.
  7. Log in to the ISP Modem and port forward in the modem by enabling DMZ and then give the local IP of DVR.
  8. In agent software, give the domain name as IP address.
