To access this camera via the Internet, it is necessary to configure the settings for the DDNS function.
When activating the DDNS function using the camera, either of the following DDNS services is available.
• “Viewnetcam.com” service
• Dynamic DNS Update (RFC2136 compliant)
IMPORTANT
•Before using the DDNS service, it is necessary to perform the port forwarding setting for the router.
• About Dynamic DNS Update (RFC2136 compliant)
Operation using DDNS services other than the “Viewnetcam.com” service is not guaranteed. We are
not responsible for any troubles or accidents on the circumstances where the camera is used arising
out of such services.
Refer to the DDNS service providers for the selection and configuration of the DDNS services other
than the “Viewnetcam.com” service.
Note
•“Viewnetcam.com” is a Dynamic DNS service designed for use with Panasonic Network Cameras.
Refer to the “Viewnetcam.com” website ( P/E/U model: http://www.viewnetcam.com/,  BR model:
http://www.panasonic.com.br/netcam) for further information about the service.
About DDNS services (IPv4/IPv6) By using a DDNS service, it becomes possible to view camera images via the Internet.
The DDNS service associates dynamic global addresses and domain names.
Operating Instructions129
15 Configuring the network settings [Network]   
						

							It is possible to configure the settings for the “Viewnetcam.com” or Dynamic DNS Update (RFC2136 compliant).
In most of the DNS services offered by providers, global addresses are not static but dynamic. Therefore,
access to the camera via an old global address may be invalidated after a certain period of time. Either of the
following services is required when accessing a camera whose global address is not static via the Internet.
• DDNS service (such as “Viewnetcam.com”)
It is possible to access via a registered and static domain name (example: *****.viewnetcam.com) even
after the global address is changed. Enrollment in a domain name service is required even when using the
IPv6 connection.
Refer to the “Viewnetcam.com” website ( P/E/U model: http://www.viewnetcam.com/,  BR model:
http://www.panasonic.com.br/netcam) for further information about the service.
• Static IP address service (such as a service offered by a contracted provider)
In this service, global addresses are static (not changed).
15.4.1  Configuration of the DDNS service (Example of the
“Viewnetcam.com” service)
A. DNS server
B. Internet
C. Provider
D. “Viewnetcam.com” service server
E. Remote site
Global address is changed.
The contracted provider allocates a global address to the router (or the camera). The global address is not
static but dynamic.
“*****.viewnetcam.com” and the current global address is automatically registered.
If you are enrolled in  “Viewnetcam.com”, the unique “domain name”  (example: *****.viewnetcam.com) will
be allocated. The “Viewnetcam.com” service server automatically manages the domain name of camera
and the global address of router (or camera) when a camera automatically notifies the service server of
the global address.
Current global address is automatically registered via “*****.viewnetcam.com”.
The “Viewnetcam.com” service server registers the global address and the domain name of router (or
camera) in the DNS server.
