1.3 Viewnetcam.com Service

Viewnetcam.com is our unique service using dynamic DNS to view the image from

Panasonic Network Cameras. Since most ISPs switches a global IP address

regularly (a dynamic global IP address) instead of using a static one, the camera

cannot be accessed with the previous assigned IP address. In this case, one of the

following services is required to access the camera from the Internet.

• Domain Name Service such as Viewnetcam.com

The camera can be accessed with a static domain name (e.g.

camera.viewnetcam.com), even if your ISP offers a dynamic global IP address.

• Static IP Address Service offered by your ISP

The camera can be accessed with a static global IP address.

How the Viewnetcam.com service works

1. Your ISP assigns a global IP address dynamically to a router or a camera. The

IP address changes regularly. If you view the camera from the Internet, the

global IP address is required.

2. If you register with the Viewnetcam.com service, a unique domain name is

assigned to the camera. The camera automatically send your global IP

address to the Viewnetcam.com server, and the Viewnetcam.com server

manages Internet access comparing your registered domain name with a

global IP address.

3. The Viewnetcam.com server looks up the global IP address that matches to

your domain name, and automatically finds your camera.

4. You can access the camera with your domain name without considering the

dynamic global IP address.

Notes

• Ask your ISP about what type of IP address you are using.

• Some ISPs assign you a private IP address. In this case, you cannot use the

Viewnetcam.com service. Ask you ISP about what type of IP address you are

using.

Installation/Troubleshooting

• If the camera is using a port number other than 80, the port number must be

specified at the end of the Viewnetcam URL. For example:

Using port 80: http://(Cameraname).viewnetcam.com

Using any other port: http://(Cameraname).viewnetcam.com:Port Number

1.4 Connecting the Camera to a Router

Supporting UPnP

To allow access from the Internet with a router supporting UPnP, follow the

procedures shown in the Getting Started.

Notes

• In some routers, the UPnP feature is disabled by default. Enable your

router's UPnP feature following the router manual before you set up the

camera. See the PanasonicNetwork Camera support website at http://

panasonic.co.jp/pcc/products/en/netwkcam/ for details.

• If the maximum idle time is set in PPPoE or PPTP connection with your

ISP, disable it on the router. See the router manual for details.
