dyndns.org:19801). You assign a port for each local IP address for the cameras that will be
accessed externally for port forwarding. You set the proxy depending on the environment.
You can find detailed information on DynDNS in Section 4.8.3 “Connecting Remote Cameras
Using DynDNS,“ and more information on proxies is available in Section 4.4.2 “Setting
Connections.“
