Soundy 1 Posted December 11, 2009 You'd specify that if you want/need the DVR to look up internet domain names. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scruit 0 Posted December 11, 2009 Guys, wondering what your answers are to this question: Why do you need to specify a DNS server on a DVR? Does the DVR have a feature to email or ftp? Would need DNS for that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shoreviewsecurity 0 Posted December 13, 2009 In our DVR's this DNS number is required in order for the DDNS service to work. DYNDNS, NO-IP, etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
