The benefit of this is if you somehow lose the IP address of the camera and you are not near the camera
location, you can always sign in to MSN Messenger and retrieve the IP address this way.
Also note that if you have e-mail notifications enabled, you can check the box that states “Report Internet
IP Address by Mail,” which will allow the IP address to be e-mailed to you every time the camera boots up
or changes IP addresses.
6.13 FTP Service Settings
This feature allows for FTP services to work with the Foscam camera. Using the FTP feature allows
images to be uploaded to an FTP whenever motion is detected.
You can enter your FTP server details in the above settings page, enter your FTP server, port, and
upload folder. We recommend using your own FTP or a third party FTP service like www.cameraftp.com
which we are using in the above screenshot.
For the FTP Upload Folder, make sure you create this folder yourself, as the camera is not able to create
folders on the FTP. Also make sure the folder can be erased.
FTP Modes supported are PASV and POST modes, check with your FTP to see which mode it uses.
The feature named Upload Image Now will upload images when this box is checked. If the box is not
checked you will not receive any uploads.
