FastDDNS: DDNS & Network Tools

Manage dynamic DNS, IP camera setup, ONVIF, and network access in one toolbox.

FastDDNS is for IT technicians, network admins, CCTV installers, MSPs, and home-lab users. Manage changing IPs, configure cameras, and diagnose remote access on site.

Why FastDDNS

Dynamic DNS keeps a hostname pointed at a changing address. FastDDNS helps show where a connection fails: on the device, at port forwarding, behind CGNAT, or at the ISP.

DDNS hostname management

• Create hostnames on FastDDNS domains or on your own domain.
• See the current IP with country and ISP, last update time, expiry date, and service pack.
• Copy hostname/IP, add notes, review history, and enable IP-change push notifications.
• Ping a hostname, move it between service packs, or delete it.
• The update protocol is DynDNS-compatible, so routers, NAS, scripts and third-party clients work too.

Auto Setup for CCTV Camera

No more typing the server, hostname, username, and password into the IP camera's web UI.

Enter a camera, DVR, or NVR IP on the LAN or WAN, port, and login. Tap Scan IP to pick the device straight from the LAN. Choose Hikvision, Dahua, EZVIZ, Imou, XMEye, HiLook, Tiandy, or Other. FastDDNS writes the DDNS settings into the device and, where the brand needs it, the DNS or email settings. Manual DDNS Configuration covers Hikvision, Dahua, DrayTek, MikroTik, pfSense, Linux/curl, and Windows.

Camera Scanner

Camera Scanner is a network scanner that finds IP cameras, NVRs and DVRs on the local network across supported protocols and shows brand, IP:port and open ports before you connect. Pair it with LAN Scanner to see every device, not just cameras.

ONVIF Camera

Enter a camera IP to read manufacturer, model, firmware, serial number, hardware ID, hostname, service endpoint, ONVIF versions, and services without a password.
Sign in with camera credentials to list every video stream and profile with snapshot thumbnails. Watch live video inside the app. Copy the RTSP link with or without credentials, ready for an NVR, DVR, VMS, or VLC. A tries-left counter helps avoid locking out the camera account.

Network tools

Twelve tools, one app — from LAN discovery to Whois.

• LAN Scanner — Find LAN devices, identify vendors, and see open ports. Use this network scanner before checking a camera or recorder.
• Camera Scanner — Discover compatible cameras and NVRs on the LAN across protocols, then see brand, IP:port, and open ports.
• Port Checker — Test TCP/UDP ports from your phone and from the internet at once, so you know if the problem is port forwarding, CGNAT, or the ISP.
• Ping — Measure live latency, min/avg/max, packet loss, and standard deviation.
• Traceroute — See each hop and transit delay. Use Traceroute to locate upstream delay.
• CGNAT Checker — Detect ISP CGNAT and NAT loopback support.
• MAC Vendor Lookup — Identify a manufacturer from a MAC address.
• DNS Lookup — Query A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, and NS records.
• MX Lookup — Find mail server records for a domain.
• Domain Whois Lookup — View domain registration and owner details.
• IP Whois Lookup — Identify the organization behind a public IP.
• Storage Calculator — Estimate CCTV storage from channels, bitrate, resolution, and schedule.
