A static address is required to use the Pull broadcasting method of Windows Media Encoder or Real Producer. If the encoding computer has a dynamic IP address (most DSL and Cable Internet connections are dynamic), there are free services available that simulate a static address. No-IP.com is a dynamic DNS service provider that points a domain name (such as yourname.no-ip.info) to your IP address, even when your IP changes.
To use No-IP.com’s free service, visit their website (www.no-ip.com)
Add a host
Now you will need to add a host to your No-IP.com account.
Update DNS
You now have a static address. If you are setting up a Windows Media Encoder or Real Producer pull stream, you’ll also need to configure port forwarding on your network. For more information on port forwarding, visit our knowledgebase article titled: “How to Configure Port Forwarding.” If you have already configured port forwarding, proceed to “How to setup Windows Media Pull” or “How to setup Real Producer Pull.”
