Tips:

1. Make sure a proper DNS is setup in the NVR. A good recommendation is Google DNS at 8.8.8.8
2. P2P configuration doesn’t provide a static URL to your NCR’s potentially-changing public IP address
3. P2P provides a video stream tied a user account not IP Address
4. It is more of a simplistic viewing platform as opposed to a DDNS service
5. Not Recommended for larger enterprise or corporate networks
6. There are some security risks – ask your IT manager
7. Video Images are not consistent like DDNS or Static URL configurations
8. You may see some but not all video streams and there is a connection timeout, bandwidth and quality limitations while using P2P.
